Source-linked reading points

  • The label carries a boxed warning for fetal toxicity. Contact the prescriber promptly for pregnancy, possible pregnancy or pregnancy planning; the site generates no continuation, stopping or substitution plan.
  • Swelling of the face, lips, tongue or throat—especially with breathing or swallowing difficulty—is an emergency angioedema signal. Do not wait for a website assessment.
  • ENTRESTO contains sacubitril/valsartan, and the label specifies a 36-hour boundary when switching to or from an ACE inhibitor such as benazepril. Do not self-schedule spacing, stopping or switching.
  • Potassium supplements or salt substitutes, a potassium-sparing diuretic, another ACE inhibitor/ARB, NSAID, lithium or a diuretic on the same list requires priority review of kidney function, potassium, hypotension and the complete medicine list. Dehydration, unsteadiness or a fall in an older adult needs timely review.
