Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

Spironolactone 1 mg/ml Oral Syrup is a concentrated liquid formulation that contains active ingredients and sweeteners. It is designed for oral administration and is often used in pediatric patients or those who have difficulty swallowing tablets or capsules. This medication is primarily used for the treatment of hypertension, edema, and congestive heart failure. It may also be prescribed for certain types of acne and hirsutism.

It is crucial for patients to inform their healthcare provider of all medications they are currently taking, including over-the-counter medications, vitamins, and herbal supplements.

Patients should be aware that spironolactone may cause side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, and lightheadedness. Caution is advised when driving or operating machinery. Additionally, spironolactone may cause hyperkalemia, hyperuricemia, hyperglycemia, hyponatremia, and hypercalcemia. Patients should be closely monitored for signs and symptoms of these conditions.

This medication is designed for oral administration and is particularly beneficial for patients who have difficulty swallowing tablets or capsules, such as children or elderly individuals.

When using Spironolactone 1 mg/ml Oral Syrup, it is crucial to adhere to the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider. The typical dosage is 1-2 teaspoons (5-10 ml) taken orally once or twice daily. To minimize the risk of stomach upset, it is recommended to take this medication with food or milk. It is also advised to stay well-hydrated while on this medication to help mitigate the risk of side effects.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
