Kann ich Co-amoxiclav und Ramipril zusammen einnehmen?

Warum das passiert

Both drugs can affect how the kidneys work and how the body handles potassium. Additionally, certain types of antibiotics (like co-amoxiclav) may rarely increase the risk of swelling reactions when taken with ACE inhibitors like ramipril.

It is generally safe to take these together, but you should be aware of the signs of an allergic reaction. Seek immediate medical help if you experience swelling of the face, lips, or tongue, or have difficulty breathing. Your doctor may want to check your kidney function or potassium levels with a blood test if you are taking these for a long period or if you are feeling very unwell.

Schwangerschaft

You must not take ramipril if you are pregnant. It can cause serious harm to your unborn baby, particularly affecting their kidney development.

Penicillinallergie

Do not take Co-Amoxiclav if you have ever had a severe allergic reaction (such as a skin rash, swelling of the face or neck, or difficulty breathing) to penicillin or any other antibiotic.

Angioedema (swelling)

Seek immediate medical help if you experience swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat. Ramipril can cause a rare but life-threatening allergic reaction called angioedema.

Leberprobleme

Seek immediate medical advice if you develop yellowing of the eyes or skin (jaundice) or pale stools, as Co-Amoxiclav can cause serious liver inflammation, sometimes weeks after finishing the course.

Alkohol

While alcohol does not directly interact with co-amoxiclav, it is generally advised to avoid alcohol while you are unwell with an infection, as it can make you feel more tired and may contribute to dehydration. Drinking alcohol while taking ramipril can increase the blood pressure-lowering effect of the medicine, which may make you feel dizzy, lightheaded, or faint. It is best to keep alcohol intake to a minimum, especially when you first start taking ramipril or when your dose is increased.

Salzersatzstoffe (Kaliumreich)

Ramipril can increase the levels of potassium in your blood. You should avoid using salt substitutes that contain potassium (such as Lo-Salt) while taking this medicine, as this could lead to dangerously high potassium levels.

Essen (Allgemein)

To reduce the risk of stomach upset or indigestion, it is best to take co-amoxiclav at the start of a meal or with a snack.
