Frequently asked questions

Does Eplerenone affect blood sugar levels?

Eplerenone may increase blood sugar levels, though this is uncommon. Diabetic patients should monitor their blood sugar regularly, and its use is discouraged in those with type 2 diabetes and certain kidney issues.

Does Eplerenone lead to erectile dysfunction?

No, Eplerenone does not cause erectile dysfunction and has no impact on fertility in either males or females.

How long does it take for Eplerenone to show effects?

Eplerenone helps control high blood pressure but does not cure it. While you may not notice symptoms, your blood pressure could show improvement within 2 weeks of starting treatment, with maximum benefits potentially taking 4 weeks or longer.

Can I discontinue Eplerenone if my blood pressure is controlled?

No, you should not stop taking Eplerenone without your doctor's guidance. It manages blood pressure but does not cure it, and discontinuation may worsen your condition and lead to unwanted side effects.

Will taking Eplerenone increase my potassium levels, and is that beneficial?

As a potassium-sparing diuretic, Eplerenone may increase potassium levels by promoting sodium loss while retaining potassium. Your doctor will likely monitor your potassium levels before starting treatment and periodically thereafter, as elevated potassium can be harmful.

What precautions should I take if I'm on aspirin and have started Eplerenone?

Aspirin may interfere with Eplerenone's effectiveness and could lead to increased potassium levels, especially in patients with kidney issues. If both medications are used together, it's important to monitor your blood pressure and potassium levels closely.

Why was Eplerenone prescribed instead of adding it to my existing Losartan treatment?

Your doctor may have found Losartan insufficient for blood pressure control. Combining Eplerenone with Losartan could raise potassium levels, which is risky; hence, Eplerenone was prescribed with Hydrochlorothiazide to mitigate this risk.

What is the function of Eplerenone and is it classified as a beta blocker or a diuretic?

Eplerenone is a potassium-sparing diuretic, prescribed alongside other medications to manage high blood pressure and treat heart failure post-heart attack. It is not a beta blocker; rather, it acts as a mineralocorticoid receptor blocker.
