[|Human|] Hi, I take 1x ramapril 5mg tablet and1x 5 mg APO-Amlodipine daily for high PB, I want to commence taking Albuterex to lose some weight daily inconjuction with an aerobic workout, it has 100mg of potassium in it so I would be taking 200 mg a day, should I do this or go off my BP medication whilst I m using Albuterex?
[|AI|]  Hi, It is not safe to take Albuterol while on BP medications. If Albuterol is taken along with April it will cause hyperkalemia (increase potassium levels in the blood). Hyperkalemia can cause muscle cramps, kidney failure, arrhythmia (irregular heart rhythm) which can be fatal. You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
