Nausea, indigestion, stomach pain, and taste change are some common side effects. Regular monitoring of kidney function, electrolytes and blood pressure is important while using this medicine. This medicine may cause increase in potassium levels (hyperkalemia) and severe allergic swelling of face, mouth, and tongue (angioedema). Hence, avoid taking potassium rich food or supplements.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you are pregnant if you have ever had any problems with your blood circulation or have liver or kidney problems. Your doctor should also know about all other medicines you are taking as many of these may make this medicine less effective or change the way it works.
