Diupres-250


Generic Name: chlorothiazide and reserpine (klor oh THYE a zide and re SER peen)

Brand Names: Diupres-250, Diupres-500


What is Diupres-250 (chlorothiazide and reserpine)?

Reserpine lowers blood pressure by decreasing the amount of certain chemicals in your body. This allows your blood vessels (veins and arteries) to relax and your heart to beat more slowly and easily.


Chlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic (water pill). It helps to lower your blood pressure and decrease edema (swelling) by increasing the amount of salt and water you lose in your urine.


Chlorothiazide and reserpine is used to lower high blood pressure.


Chlorothiazide and reserpine may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide.


What is the most important information I should know about Diupres-250 (chlorothiazide and reserpine)?


Stand up slowly from a sitting or lying position. Chlorothiazide and reserpine may make you feel dizzy. Do not stop taking chlorothiazide and reserpine suddenly. Even if you feel better, you need this medication to control your condition. Stopping suddenly could cause severe high blood pressure, anxiety, and other dangerous side effects.

Tell your doctor and dentist that you are taking this medication before having surgery.


Who should not take Diupres-250 (chlorothiazide and reserpine)?


Do not take chlorothiazide and reserpine if you have an allergy to sulfa-based drugs such as sulfa antibiotics. You may have an allergic reaction to chlorothiazide.

You must not take chlorothiazide and reserpine if you



  • have peptic ulcer disease (stomach ulcers);




  • have ulcerative colitis;




  • are suffering from depression (especially if you have suicidal thoughts);




  • are receiving electroconvulsive shock therapy; or




  • are taking a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) such as isocarboxazid (Marplan), phenelzine (Nardil), or tranylcypromine (Parnate).



Before taking this medication, tell your doctor if you have



  • gallstones or other stomach problems,



  • kidney or liver disease,


  • diabetes,




  • gout,




  • a collagen vascular disease such as systemic lupus erythematosus,




  • high cholesterol or triglyceride levels,




  • pancreatitis,




  • asthma, or




  • any type of heart disease.



You may require a lower dose or special monitoring during therapy with chlorothiazide and reserpine if you have any of the conditions listed above.


Chlorothiazide and reserpine is in the FDA pregnancy category C. This means that it is not known whether chlorothiazide and reserpine will harm an unborn baby. Do not take chlorothiazide and reserpine without first talking to your doctor if you are pregnant. Chlorothiazide and reserpine passes into breast milk and may harm a nursing infant. Do not take chlorothiazide and reserpine without first talking to your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby. If you are over 60 years of age, you may be more likely to experience side effects from chlorothiazide and reserpine therapy. You may require a lower dose of this medication. Chlorothiazide and reserpine has not been approved for use by children.

How should I take Diupres-250 (chlorothiazide and reserpine)?


Take chlorothiazide and reserpine exactly as directed. If you do not understand these directions, ask your pharmacist, nurse, or doctor to explain them to you.


Take each dose with a full glass of water. Take chlorothiazide and reserpine with food or milk if it upsets your stomach. Do not stop taking chlorothiazide and reserpine suddenly. Even if you feel better, you need this medication to control your condition. Stopping suddenly could cause severe high blood pressure, anxiety, and other dangerous side effects. Store this medication at room temperature away from moisture and heat.

What happens if I miss a dose?


Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the dose you missed and take only your next regularly scheduled dose. Do not take a double dose of this medication.


What happens if I overdose?


Seek emergency medical attention.

Symptoms of a chlorothiazide and reserpine overdose include low blood pressure (fainting, dizziness, weakness); sleepiness; uncontrollable hand, leg, or arm movements; a slow pulse; low body temperature; diarrhea; increased urination; vomiting; and slow breathing.


What should I avoid while taking Diupres-250 (chlorothiazide and reserpine)?


Avoid a diet high in salt. Too much salt will cause your body to retain water and will decrease the effects of chlorothiazide.


Use caution when arising from a sitting or lying position, especially first thing in the morning. You may become dizzy while taking chlorothiazide and reserpine and you may fall and injure yourself if you get up quickly.

Do not let yourself become overheated in hot weather or during exercise, and use caution if you have a fever. These situations increase the effects of chlorothiazide and reserpine in your body, and you may become very dizzy.


Also, chlorothiazide may increase the sensitivity of your skin to sunlight. Use a sunscreen and wear protective clothing when exposure to the sun is unavoidable. Avoid alcohol while taking chlorothiazide and reserpine. Alcohol, which will further lower your blood pressure, will also increase the drowsiness caused by chlorothiazide and reserpine and may increase dizziness. Use caution even with small amounts of alcohol.

Do not take any over the counter cough, cold, allergy, sleep, or diet medications without first asking your doctor or pharmacist. These will interfere with your chlorothiazide and reserpine therapy.


Use caution when you are driving, operating machinery, or performing other hazardous activities until you know how chlorothiazide and reserpine affects you. If it makes you dizzy or drowsy, avoid these activities.


Tell your doctor and dentist that you are taking this medication before having surgery.


Diupres-250 (chlorothiazide and reserpine) side effects


If you experience any of the following serious side effects, stop taking chlorothiazide and reserpine and seek emergency medical attention:

  • an allergic reaction (difficulty breathing, closing of your throat, swelling of your lips, tongue or face, hives);




  • a very irregular heartbeat;




  • heart failure (shortness of breath, swelling of ankles or legs, sudden weight gain of 5 pounds or more);




  • unusual fatigue;




  • abnormal bleeding or bruising;




  • yellow skin or eyes;




  • confusion;




  • fainting;




  • uncontrollable hand, arm, or leg movements;




  • chest pain; or

  • fatigue or drowsiness;




  • dizziness (avoid standing up too quickly and use caution when performing hazardous activities);




  • anxiety, depression, or nightmares;




  • diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, or an acid stomach (take chlorothiazide and reserpine with food or milk if it upsets your stomach);




  • abdominal pain;




  • stuffy nose or a dry mouth (sucking on ice chips or sugarless hard candy may relieve a dry mouth);




  • blurred vision;




  • headache;




  • tingling or numbness in your arms, legs, hands, or feet;




  • excessive urination;




  • muscle weakness or cramps;




  • increased hunger or thirst;




  • weight gain;

  • impotence or difficulty ejaculating.

Side effects other than those listed here may also occur. Talk to your doctor about any side effect that seems unusual or that is especially bothersome.


What other drugs will affect Diupres-250 (chlorothiazide and reserpine)?


Do not take reserpine and chlorothiazide if you are taking a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI), or if you have taken one in the last 14 days. MAOIs, used to treat depression, include isocarboxazid (Marplan), phenelzine (Nardil), and tranylcypromine (Parnate).


Before taking this medication, tell your doctor if you are taking any of the following medicines:


  • tricyclic antidepressants such as amitriptyline (Elavil, Endep) or doxepin (Sinequan), which may decrease the effects of reserpine and chlorothiazide;

  • other commonly used tricyclic antidepressants, including amoxapine (Ascendin), clomipramine (Anafranil), desipramine (Norpramin), imipramine (Tofranil), nortriptyline (Pamelor), and protriptyline (Vivactil);


  • digoxin (Lanoxin) or quinidine (Cardioquin, Quinidex, Quinora, Quinaglute), which will increase the risk that you will experience an irregular heartbeat when it is taken with chlorothiazide and reserpine;




  • barbiturates such as phenobarbital (Luminal, Solfoton), amobarbital (Amytal), and secobarbital (Seconal), which may cause extreme sleepiness or dizziness if taken with reserpine and chlorothiazide;




  • narcotic pain relievers such as codeine (Tylenol #3, Tylenol #4, others), propoxyphene (Darvon, Darvocet, Wygesic), oxycodone (Percodan, Percocet, Tylox), meperidine (Demerol), morphine (MS Contin, Duramorph, others), and others, which also may cause extreme sleepiness or dizziness if taken with reserpine and chlorothiazide;




  • steroid medications such as hydrocortisone (Hydrocortone, Cortef), prednisone (Deltasone, Orasone), prednisolone (Delta Cortef, Prelone), methylprednisolone (Medrol), betamethasone (Celestone), dexamethasone (Decadron, Hexadrol), and others, which may increase the side effects of chlorothiazide;




  • prescription and over-the-counter cough, cold, allergy, diet, and sleeping pills, any of which may contain drugs that increase your blood pressure and heart rate and thus decrease the effects of reserpine;




  • the cholesterol-lowering drugs cholestyramine (Questran) and colestipol (Colestid), which may decrease the effects of chlorothiazide;




  • nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil), ketoprofen (Orudis, Orudis, KT, Oruvail), and naproxen (Naprosyn, Anaprox, Aleve), which may also decrease the effects of chlorothiazide;




  • other commonly used NSAIDs, including diclofenac (Cataflam, Voltaren), etodolac (Lodine), fenoprofen (Nalfon), flurbiprofen (Ansaid), indomethacin (Indocin), ketorolac (Toradol), mefenamic acid (Ponstel), nabumetone (Relafen), oxaprozin (Daypro), piroxicam (Feldene), sulindac (Clinoril), and tolmetin (Tolectin);




  • oral antidiabetic drugs such as Glipizide (Glucotrol), glyburide (Micronase, Glynase, Diabeta), chlorpropamide (Diabinese), tolazamide (Tolinase) and tolbutamide (Orinase), which may not lower your blood sugar as well during therapy with chlorothiazide and reserpine (your diabetes therapy may have to be adjusted);




  • lithium (Lithobid, Eskalith, others), which should not be taken with chlorothiazide because serious side effects may result; or




  • other drugs that also lower blood pressure, including acebutolol (Sectral), atenolol (Tenormin), bisoprolol (Zebeta), carteolol (Cartrol), labetalol (Trandate, Normodyne), propranolol (Inderal), pindolol (Visken), timolol (Blocadren), benazepril (Lotensin), enalapril (Vasotec), captopril (Capoten), fosinopril (Monopril), lisinopril (Prinivil, Zestril), moexipril (Univasc), quinapril (Accupril), ramipril (Altace), amlodipine (Norvasc), bepridil (Vascor), diltiazem (Cardizem, Dilacor), felodipine (Plendil), isradipine (Dynacirc), nicardipine (Cardene), nifedipine (Adalat, Procardia), nimodipine (Nimotop), and verapamil (Calan, Veralan, Isoptin).

Doxycycline Syrup


Pronunciation: DOX-i-SYE-kleen
Generic Name: Doxycycline
Brand Name: Vibramycin


Doxycycline Syrup is used for:

Treating certain bacterial infections. It may be used in combination with other medicines to treat acne or certain amoeba infections. It may be used to prevent certain types of malaria in travelers who will be visiting malaria-infected areas for less than 4 months. It may also be used to prevent or slow the progression of anthrax after exposure.


Doxycycline Syrup is a tetracycline antibiotic. It works by slowing the growth of bacteria. Slowing the bacteria's growth allows the body's immune system to destroy the bacteria.


Do NOT use Doxycycline Syrup if:


  • you are allergic to any ingredient in Doxycycline Syrup or to another tetracycline (eg, minocycline)

  • you are taking acitretin, isotretinoin, or a penicillin (eg, amoxicillin)

  • you have recently received or will be receiving a live oral typhoid vaccine

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.



Before using Doxycycline Syrup:


Some medical conditions may interact with Doxycycline Syrup. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:


  • if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding

  • if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement

  • if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances

  • if you have diarrhea, a history of lupus, or the blood disease porphyria

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Doxycycline Syrup. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:


  • Barbiturates (eg, phenobarbital), carbamazepine, hydantoins (eg, phenytoin), iron, or urinary alkalinizers (eg, sodium bicarbonate) because they may decrease Doxycycline Syrup's effectiveness

  • Acitretin, anticoagulants (eg, warfarin), digoxin, isotretinoin, methotrexate, or methoxyflurane because the risk of their side effects and toxic effects may be increased by Doxycycline Syrup

  • Live oral typhoid vaccine, hormonal birth control (eg, birth control pills), or penicillins (eg, amoxicillin) because their effectiveness may be decreased by Doxycycline Syrup

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Doxycycline Syrup may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.


How to use Doxycycline Syrup:


Use Doxycycline Syrup as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.


  • Take Doxycycline Syrup by mouth with or without food. If stomach upset occurs, take with food to reduce stomach irritation.

  • Use a measuring device marked for medicine dosing. Ask your pharmacist for help if you are unsure of how to measure your dose.

  • Do not take an antacid that has aluminum, calcium, or magnesium in it; bismuth-containing products; iron; urinary alkalinizers (eg, sodium bicarbonate); or multivitamins with minerals within 2 hours before or 2 hours after you take Doxycycline Syrup.

  • To clear up your infection completely, take Doxycycline Syrup for the full course of treatment. Keep taking it even if you feel better in a few days.

  • Drink plenty of fluids with Doxycycline Syrup to wash it down and avoid the risk of throat irritation.

  • Do not use Doxycycline Syrup if it is outdated or has been stored incorrectly.

  • If you are taking Doxycycline Syrup to prevent malaria, you should begin to take it 1 to 2 days before you travel to the malaria-infected area. You will need to keep taking it for 4 weeks after you leave the area. Discuss any questions with your doctor.

  • If you miss a dose of Doxycycline Syrup, take it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once.

Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Doxycycline Syrup.



Important safety information:


  • Be sure to use Doxycycline Syrup for the full course of treatment. If you do not, the medicine may not clear up your infection completely. The bacteria could also become less sensitive to this or other medicines. This could make the infection harder to treat in the future.

  • Doxycycline Syrup only works against bacteria; it does not treat viral infections (eg, the common cold).

  • Long-term or repeated use of Doxycycline Syrup may cause a second infection. Tell your doctor if signs of a second infection occur. Your medicine may need to be changed to treat this.

  • If you are taking Doxycycline Syrup to prevent malaria, please note that no malaria medicine, including Doxycycline Syrup, guarantees protection against malaria. Stay in well-screened areas, use mosquito nets, cover the body with clothing, and use insect repellent to avoid being bitten by mosquitoes.

  • Some of these products contain sulfites. Sulfites may cause an allergic reaction in some patients (eg, asthma patients). If you have ever had an allergic reaction to sulfites, ask your pharmacist if your product has sulfites in it.

  • Hormonal birth control (eg, birth control pills) may not work as well while you are using Doxycycline Syrup. To prevent pregnancy, use an extra form of birth control (eg, condoms).

  • Doxycycline Syrup may cause you to become sunburned more easily. Avoid the sun, sunlamps, or tanning booths until you know how you react to Doxycycline Syrup. Use a sunscreen or wear protective clothing if you must be outside for more than a short time.

  • Mild diarrhea is common with antibiotic use. However, a more serious form of diarrhea (pseudomembranous colitis) may rarely occur. This may develop while you use the antibiotic or within several months after you stop using it. Contact your doctor right away if stomach pain or cramps, severe diarrhea, or blood stools occur. Do not treat diarrhea without first checking with your doctor.

  • Do NOT take more than the recommended dose or use for longer than prescribed without checking with your doctor.

  • Tell your doctor or dentist that you take Doxycycline Syrup before you receive any medical or dental care, emergency care, or surgery.
