  • No data
  • Only a few cases of human overdose with amlodipine have been reported. One patient was asymptomatic after a 250 mg ingestion; another, who combined 70 mg of amlodipine with an unknown large quantity of a benzodiazepine, developed refractory shock and died.
  • Human overdoses with any combination of amlodipine and benazepril have not been reported. In scattered reports of human overdoses with benazepril and other ACE inhibitors, there are no reports of death.
  • Treatment:
  • In the event of a potentially life-threatening oral overdose, use induction of vomiting or gastric lavage and/or activated charcoal to remove the drug from the gastrointestinal tract (only if presented within 1 hour after ingestion of Lotrel).
  • Other clinical manifestations of overdose should be managed symptomatically based on modern methods of intensive care.
  • To obtain up-to-date information about the treatment of overdose, a good resource is your certified Regional Poison-Control Center. Telephone numbers of certified poison-control centers are listed in the Physiciansu2019 Desk Reference (PDR). In managing overdose, consider the possibilities of multiple-drug overdoses, drug-drug interactions, and unusual drug kinetics in your patient.
  • The most likely effect of overdose with Lotrel is vasodilation, with consequent hypotension and tachycardia. Simple repletion of central fluid volume (Trendelenburg positioning, infusion of crystalloids) may be sufficient therapy, but pressor agents (norepinephrine or high-dose dopamine) may be required. With abrupt return of peripheral vascular tone, overdoses of other dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers have sometimes progressed to pulmonary edema, and patients must be monitored for this complication.
  • Analyses of bodily fluids for concentrations of amlodipine, benazepril, or their metabolites are not widely available. Such analyses are, in any event, not known to be of value in therapy or prognosis.
  • No data are available to suggest physiologic maneuvers (e.g., maneuvers to change the pH of the urine) that might accelerate elimination of amlodipine, benazepril, or their metabolites. Benazeprilat is only slightly dialyzable; attempted clearance of amlodipine by hemodialysis or hemo-perfusion has not been reported, but amlodipineu2019s high protein binding makes it unlikely that these interventions will be of value.
  • Angiotensin II could presumably serve as a specific antagonist-antidote to benazepril, but angiotensin II is essentially unavailable outside of scattered research laboratories.
  • Lotrel is a combination of amlodipine besylate and benazepril hydrochloride.
  • Benazepril hydrochloride is a white to off-white crystalline powder, soluble (greater than 100 mg/mL) in water, in ethanol, and in methanol. Benazepril hydrochlorideu2019s chemical name is 3-[[1-(ethoxycarbonyl)-3-phenyl-(1S)-propyl]amino]-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2-oxo-1-1-(3S)-benzazepine-1-acetic acid monohydrochloride; its structural formula is:
  • nttu00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0ntu00a0u00a0n
  • Its empirical formula is CHNOu2022HCl, and its molecular weight is 460.96.
  • Benazeprilat, the active metabolite of benazepril, is a nonsulfhydryl ACE inhibitor. Benazepril is converted to benazeprilat by hepatic cleavage of the ester group.
  • Amlodipine besylate is a white to pale yellow crystalline powder, slightly soluble in water and sparingly soluble in ethanol. Its chemical name is (R,S)3-ethyl-5-methyl-2-(2-aminoethoxymethyl)-4-(2-chlorophenyl)-1,4-dihydro-6-methyl-3,5-pyridinedicarboxylate benzenesulfonate; its structural formula is:
  • nttu00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0u00a0ntu00a0u00a0u00a0n
  • Its empirical formula is CHClNOu2022CHOS, and its molecular weight is 567.1.
  • Amlodipine besylate is the besylate salt of amlodipine, a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker.
  • Lotrel capsules are formulated in 4 different strengths for oral administration with a combination of amlodipine besylate equivalent to 5 mg or 10 mg of amlodipine, with 10 mg, 20u00a0mg or 40 mg of benazepril hydrochloride providing for the following available combinations: 5/10 mg, 5/20 mg, 10/20 mg and 10/40 mg.
  • The inactive ingredients of the capsules are calcium phosphate, cellulose compounds, colloidal silicon dioxide, crospovidone, gelatin, hydrogenated castor oil (not present in 10/40 mg strength), iron oxides, lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate, polysorbate 80, silicon dioxide, sodium lauryl sulfate, sodium starch (potato) glycolate, starch (corn), talc, and titanium dioxide.
  • No data
  • Carcinogenicity and mutagenicity studies have not been conducted with this combination. However, these studies have been conducted with amlodipine and benazepril alone (see below).u00a0No adverse effects on fertility occurred when the benazepril:amlodipine combination was given orally to rats of either sex at doses up to 15:7.5 mgu00a0(benazepril:amlodipine)/kg/day, prior to mating and throughout gestation.
  • Benazepril:
  • Amlodipine:
  • Over 950 patients received Lotrel once-daily in 6 double-blind, placebo-controlled studies. The antihypertensive effect of a single dose persisted for 24 hours, with peak reductions achieved 2 to 8 hours after dosing.
  • Once-daily doses of benazepril/amlodipine using benazepril doses of 10 to 20 mg and amlodipine doses of 2.5 to 10 mg decreased seated pressure (systolic/diastolic) 24 hours after dosing by about 10u201325/6u201313 mmHg.
  • In 2 studies in patients not adequately controlled on either benazepril 40 mg alone (n = 329) or amlodipine 10 mg alone (n = 812) once-daily doses of Lotrel 10/40 mg further decreased seated blood pressure compared to the respective monotherapy alone.
  • Combination therapy was effective in blacks and nonblacks. Both components contributed to the antihypertensive efficacy in nonblacks, but virtually all of the antihypertensive effect in blacks could be attributed to the amlodipine component. Among nonblack patients in placebo-controlled trials comparing Lotrel to the individual components, the blood pressure lowering effects of the combination were shown to be additive and in some cases synergistic.
  • During chronic therapy with Lotrel, the maximum reduction in blood pressure with any given dose is generally achieved after 1 to 2 weeks. The antihypertensive effects of Lotrel have continued during therapy for at least 1 year. Abrupt withdrawal of Lotrel has not been associated with a rapid increase in blood pressure.
  • Lotrel is available as capsules containing amlodipine besylate equivalent to 5 mg, or 10 mg of amlodipine, with 10 mg, 20 mg, or 40 mg of benazepril hydrochloride providing for the following available combinations: 5/10 mg, 5/20 mg, 10/20 mg, and 10/40 mg. All strengths are packaged in bottles of 100 capsules.
  • Capsules are imprinted with u201cLotrelu201d and appropriate code.
  • Storage: Store at 20u00b0C - 25u00b0C (68u00b0F - 77u00b0F); excursions permitted between 15u00b0C and 30u00b0C (59u00b0F and 86u00b0F). [See USP controlled room temperature]. Protect from moisture. Dispense in tight container (USP).
