In these patients Candesartan Cilexetil should be carefully titrated with thorough monitoring of blood pressure. Evaluation of patients with heart failure should include periodic assessments of renal function, especially in elderly patients 75 years or older, and patients with impaired renal function. During dose titration of Candesartan Cilexetil, monitoring of serum creatinine and potassium is recommended. Clinical trials in heart failure did not include patients with serum creatinine > 265 µmol/l (> 3 mg/dl).

Hypotension Hypotension may occur during treatment with Candesartan Cilexetil in heart failure patients. It may also occur in hypertensive patients with intravascular volume depletion such as those receiving high dose diuretics. Caution should be observed when initiating therapy and correction of hypovolemia should be attempted. Dual blockade of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) There is evidence that the concomitant use of ACE-inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers or aliskiren increases the risk o …

Renal impairment As with other agents inhibiting the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, changes in renal function may be anticipated in susceptible patients treated with Candesartan Cilexetil. When Candesartan Cilexetil is used in hypertensive patients with renal impairment, periodic monitoring of serum potassium and creatinine levels is recommended. There is limited experience in patients with very severe or end-stage renal impairment (Clcreatinine < 15 ml/min). In these patients Candesartan Cilexetil should be carefully titrated with thorough monitoring of blood pressure.

… Candesartan Cilexetil has not been studied in children with a glomerular filtration rate less than 30 ml/min/1.73m2 (see section 4.2). Concomitant therapy with an ACE inhibitor in heart failure The risk of adverse reactions, especially hypotension, hyperkalaemia and decreased renal function (including acute renal failure), may increase when Candesartan is used in combination with an ACE-inhibitor. Use of this combination should be under specialist supervision and subject to frequent close monitoring of renal function, electrolytes and blood pressure. ACE-inhibitors and angiotensin II receptor blockers should not be used concomitantly in patients with diabetic nephropathy.

… potassium-sparing diuretic (e.g. spironolactone) and Candesartan cilexetil is not recommended and should be considered only after careful evaluation of the potential benefits and risks. General In patients whose vascular tone and renal function depend predominantly on the activity of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (e.g. patients with severe congestive heart failure or underlying renal disease, including renal artery stenosis), treatment with other medicinal products that affect this system has been associated with acute hypotension, azotaemia, oliguria or, rarely, acute renal failure. The possibility of similar effects cannot be excluded with AIIRAs. As with any antihypertensive agent, excessive blood pressure decrease in patients with ischaemic cardiopathy or ischaemic cerebrovascular disease could result in a myocardial infarction or stroke. The antihypertensive effect of candesartan may be enhanced by other medicinal products with blood pressure lowering properties, whether prescribed as an antihypertensive or prescribed for other indi …
