Medicine pack check sheet

Source-linked reading points

• Check ZESTRIL, lisinopril, oral-tablet form, the stated 2.5/5/10/20/30/40 mg per tablet, NDC, actual pack and target market together. Mg is the labelled amount in an exact tablet, not a web rule for how many tablets an individual should use, and it cannot self-convert another strength, form, market or medicine.
• The label carries a pregnancy-related boxed warning. Questions about pregnancy, possible pregnancy, family planning or breastfeeding cannot be handled from a pack, webpage or another person's experience; contact the prescribing team or pharmacist promptly and check the exact product and current target-market label.
• The label identifies kidney function, potassium, blood pressure, angioedema, and relationships with diuretics, NSAIDs, lithium, mTOR inhibitors or neprilysin inhibitors as safety cues requiring professional review. When adding a prescription, OTC pain/cold product, herb, supplement or salt substitute, have a pharmacist or care team check the complete medicine list and actual packs; do not self-combine, replace or alter use.
• ZESTRIL contains lisinopril alone; ZESTORETIC already contains lisinopril and hydrochlorothiazide. The current label also states a 36-hour boundary around switching to or from sacubitril/valsartan. If both names appear or a switch involving ENTRESTO is planned, do not add, stop or schedule an interval from the website; contact the prescriber or pharmacist promptly.
