Product Info:

Spironolactone Hydrochlorothiazide is a prescription diuretic tablet that helps rid the body of excess fluid. It’s used to treat congestive heart failure as well as fluid in the abdomen, and comes in an easy to administer tablet. Veterinarians use this medicine in the treatment of companion animals.

For:

Dogs and Cats

Uses:

Spironolactone Hydrochlorothiazide may be used in pets with congestive heart failure (CHF) who do not adequately respond to diuretics and ACE inhibitors (used primarily for the treatment of hypertension and congestive heart failure), or who develop hypokalemia (low levels of potassium in blood) on other diuretics and are unwilling or unable to supplement with external potassium sources.

Cautions:

Keep out of the reach of children and pets. Spironolactone should not be used in animals with a known hypersensitivity or allergy to the drug. Do not use in animals that are pregnant or lactating, have high potassium levels in the blood, suffer from hypoadrenocorticism, or suffer from Cushing’s disease and are taking the medication mitotane. Use caution when administering to animals with liver or kidney disease Spironolactone may interact with some other medications. Inform your veterinarian of any and all medications your pet may be taking. Spironolactone will cause your pet to urinate more frequently. Store at room temperature.

Side Effects:

If any of the following serious side effects occur, stop giving spironolactone and seek emergency veterinary medical attention; an allergic reaction (difficulty breathing; swelling of the lips; tongue or face; hives); an irregular heartbeat, shortness of breath, fatigue, confusion, weakness, numbness, or decreased urination. Other less serious side effects may occur. Continue giving spironolactone and talk to your veterinarian if your pet experiences headache, dizziness, nausea, diarrhea, decreased appetite, or dry mouth. Other side effects may also occur. Talk to your veterinarian about any side effect that seems unusual or bothersome to your pet.
