To date, no cases of overdose of this combination have been reported.
Symptoms: the most likely manifestation of an overdose of Enanorm will be a marked decrease in blood pressure.
Treatment: gastric lavage, administration of adsorbents (if possible, in the first 30 minutes), vital functions should be monitored. In the case of a pronounced decrease in blood pressure, the patient is transferred to a horizontal position with a low headboard. In mild cases, gastric lavage and oral administration of sodium chloride salt solution are indicated, in more severe cases, measures aimed at stabilizing blood pressure: intravenous administration of 0.9% sodium chloride solution, plasma — substituting solutions, if necessary, administration of angiotensin II, hemodialysis (the rate of elimination of enalaprilate is 62 ml/min). There is no specific antidote

The antihypertensive effect of Enanorm may be enhanced when used concomitantly with other antihypertensive agents, such as diuretics, beta-blockers, or alpha-blockers.
In addition, when used simultaneously, individual components of the drug may exhibit the following interactions
Enalapril
Combinations that should be used with caution
Potassium-sparing diuretics and potassium preparations. ACE inhibitors reduce the loss of potassium caused by diuretics. Potassium-sparing diuretics, potassium preparations, and other drugs that can increase the serum potassium content (for example, heparin) may have an additive effect on the serum potassium content, especially in patients with impaired renal function. If the combined use of such drugs is necessary, for example, to eliminate hypokalemia, then caution should be exercised and the content of potassium in the blood serum should be monitored frequently.
Lithium. The use of enalapril in combination with lithium is not recommended due to the risk of a significant increase in the concentration of lithium in the blood serum with the subsequent development of severe neurotoxicity. If the combined use of these drugs is necessary, then the concentration of lithium in the blood serum should be carefully monitored.
NSAIDs. In combination with ACE inhibitors, they additively increase the content of potassium in the blood serum, which can lead to deterioration of kidney function. In elderly patients and patients with reduced BCC, this combination can cause acute renal failure due to its direct effect on the glomerular filtration rate. Moreover, NSAIDs can weaken the antihypertensive effect of ACE inhibitors.
Hypoglycemic agents for oral administration. Enalapril can increase the hypoglycemic effect of these drugs, so you should carefully monitor the concentration of glucose in the blood.
Baclofen. May enhance the antihypertensive effect. If necessary, combined use should monitor blood pressure and adjust the dose.
Neuroleptics. Use in conjunction with these drugs may cause orthostatic hypotension.
Antidepressants. Use in combination with tricyclic antidepressants may cause orthostatic hypotension.
Allopurinol, cytostatics, immunosuppressants, systemic corticosteroids (used parenterally or orally), procainamide. Concomitant use may cause leukopenia.
Digoxin. Enalapril was used in combination with digoxin without any evidence of a clinically significant adverse interaction.
Combinations to consider
Amifostin. The combination enhances the antihypertensive effect.
Nitrendipine
Cimetidine and ranitidine. Cimetidine, and to a lesser extent ranitidine, may increase the concentration of nitrendipine in blood plasma, but the clinical significance of these data is unknown.
Digoxin. Simultaneous use of nitrendipine and digoxin may lead to an increase in the concentration of digoxin in the blood plasma. Therefore, you should monitor the appearance of symptoms of an overdose of digoxin or, if necessary, monitor the concentration of digoxin in the blood plasma.
Muscle relaxants. The use of nitrendipine may increase the duration and severity of the effects of muscle relaxants, for example, pancuronium bromide.
Grapefruit juice it suppresses the oxidative metabolism of nitrendipine. Taking the latter with grapefruit juice increases the concentration of nitrendipine in the blood plasma, which can enhance its antihypertensive effect. Nitrendipine is metabolized by the cytochrome P450 isoenzyme CYP3A4 in the intestinal mucosa and in the liver. Inducers of the CYP3A4 isoenzyme, such as anticonvulsants (phenytoin, phenobarbital, carbamazepine) and rifampicin, can significantly reduce the bioavailability of nitrendipine. Inhibitors of the isoenzyme CYP3A4, for example, antifungal imidazoles (itraconazole, etc.) can increase the concentration of nitrendipine in the blood plasma
Beta-blockers. Nitrendipine and beta-blockers act synergistically. This may be of particular importance for patients in whom additional beta-adrenoceptor blockade does not compensate for sympathetic vascular reactions, and caution is recommended for such patients.

Essential hypertension (patients who are indicated for combination therapy).
Enanorm is a combination of two antihypertensive agents with a complementary mechanism for lowering blood pressure: enalapril-an ACE inhibitor and nitrendipine-BCC.
Enalapril
Enalapril is a prodrug, as a result of its hydrolysis, an active metabolite is formed — enalaprilate, which inhibits ACE. The mechanism of its action is associated with a decrease in the formation of angiotensin II from angiotensin I, a decrease in the content of which leads to a direct decrease in the release of aldosterone. At the same time, OPSS, sAD and dBP, postload and preload on the myocardium are reduced.
Enalapril dilates the arteries to a greater extent than the veins, while there is no reflex increase in heart rate.
The antihypertensive effect is more pronounced with high plasma renin activity than with normal or reduced renin activity. A decrease in blood pressure within therapeutic limits does not affect the cerebral circulation: blood flow in the vessels of the brain is maintained at a sufficient level and against the background of reduced blood pressure. Increases coronary and renal blood flow.
With prolonged use, hypertrophy of the left ventricle of the myocardium and the myocytes of the walls of the arteries of the resistive type decreases, the progression of heart failure is prevented and the development of left ventricular dilatation slows down. Enalapril improves blood supply to the ischemic myocardium.
The time of onset of the antihypertensive effect when taken orally is 1 hour, reaches a maximum after 4-6 hours and persists for a day.
Nitrendipine
Nitrendipine-BCC from the group of dihydropyridine derivatives, has an antihypertensive effect. Reduces the flow of calcium ions into the smooth muscle cells of the coronary and peripheral arteries. Causes a slight increase in the excretion of sodium and water. Reduces afterload and the need for oxygen in the myocardium, does not inhibit the conduction of the heart muscle.
Reduces the number of functioning channels, without affecting the time of their activation, inactivation and recovery. It separates the processes of excitation and contraction in the myocardium, mediated by tropomyosin and troponin, and in the vascular smooth muscles, mediated by calmodulin. In therapeutic doses, it normalizes the transmembrane current of calcium ions, which is disturbed in a number of pathological conditions, primarily in arterial hypertension.
The results of a clinical study of Enanorm in patients with arterial hypertension who did not achieve satisfactory blood pressure control with enalapril 10 mg or nitrendipine 20 mg monotherapy showed that Enanorm has a more pronounced effect on reducing both dBP and sAD and the severity of the therapeutic response to the therapy.

Enalapril
After oral administration, it is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract by 60%. Food intake does not affect the absorption of enalapril.The binding of enalapril to plasma proteins is 50-60%. Enalapril is rapidly metabolized in the liver to form the active metabolite — enalaprilate. The bioavailability of enalapril is 40%.
Cmax enalapril in blood plasma is reached after 1 h, enalaprilat-3-4 h. Enalaprilat easily passes through the histohematic barriers, excluding BBB, a small amount penetrates through the placenta and into breast milk.
T1/2 enalaprilata — about 11 hours. Enalapril is mainly excreted by the kidneys-60% (20% - in the form of enalapril and 40% - in the form of enalaprilate), through the intestine-33% (6% - in the form of enalapril and 27% - in the form of enalaprilate).
It is removed during hemodialysis (rate of 62 ml / min) and peritoneal dialysis.
Nitrendipine
It is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract by 88%. Bioavailability is 20-30% due to the pronounced effect of primary passage through the liver. Relationship with plasma proteins (albumin) — 96–98%. Tmax in blood plasma-1-3 hours after application.
Vss it is 5-9 l / kg, hemodialysis and plasmapheresis to remove nitrendipine from the body are ineffective.
It is metabolized in the liver, mainly by oxidation. The metabolites are pharmacologically inactive. Nitrendipine is excreted mainly through the kidneys: approximately 77% of the dose is excreted as metabolites, less than 0.1% of the dose is excreted unchanged. The rest of nitrendipine is excreted through the intestine.
T1/2 nitrendipine after oral administration is 8-12 hours. Neither nitrendipine nor its metabolites accumulate in the body. In elderly patients, T increases1/2, in cirrhosis of the liver-AUC and Cmax in the blood plasma increases.
In patients with impaired renal function, dose adjustment is not required.
The study of the interaction of enalapril and nitrendipine in healthy volunteers did not reveal a change in the pharmacokinetics of nitrendipine. As for enalaprilat, its bioavailability is slightly increased when used concomitantly with nitrendipine, but this does not seem to have clinical significance. The bioavailability of nitrendipine when using a combined drug is higher than when using two drugs separately.
Enit
Enalapril, Nitrendipine
Inside, swallowing whole, without breaking or chewing, with a sufficient amount of water. No more than 1 tablet per day.
Patients with impaired liver function. Enanorm is contraindicated in patients with severe hepatic impairment (see "Contraindications"). In patients with mild to moderate hepatic impairment, monotherapy with neither enalapril nor nitrendipine is contraindicated, but due to the fact that there is no experience with Enanorm in such patients, the drug should be prescribed with caution.
Patients with impaired renal function. Enanorm is contraindicated in patients with severe renal impairment (creatinine Cl less than 10 ml / min) and patients undergoing hemodialysis. In patients with moderate renal insufficiency (creatinine Cl greater than 30 ml / min, serum creatinine < 3 mg/ml), there is no need to adjust the dose, at the same time, it is necessary to evaluate renal function.
Children and teenagers. The drug Enanorm should not be used in children and adolescents under 18 years of age due to the lack of data on the use.
