Warning and Precautions
-
Worsening fluid retention or heart failure may occur during up-titration of carvedilol tablets. If such symptoms develop, diuretics need to be increased and the carvedilol dose should not be advanced until clinical stability resumes.
-
Patients with bronchospastic disease (e.g., emphysema, chronic bronchitis) should, in general, not receive treatment with β-blockers. Carvedilol may be used with caution, however, in those who do not respond to or cannot tolerate, other antihypertensive agents.
-
Rarely, the use of carvedilol in those with heart failure may cause deterioration of renal function. Patients at risk appear to be those with low blood pressure, ischemic heart disease, diffuse vascular disease, or underlying renal insufficiency. Monitor patients for renal function during up-titration and the drug discontinued or dosage reduced in case worsening of renal function occurs.
-
In patients with pheochromocytoma, an α-blocking agent needs to be started prior to the use of any β-blocking agent. Caution must be taken in the administration of carvedilol 3.125 mg/6.25 mg/12.5 mg/25 mg tablets to patients suspected of having pheochromocytoma.
-
Agents with non-selective β-blocking activity may be responsible for provoking chest pain in patients with Prinzmetal’s variant angina. Caution should be imposed in the use of carvedilol pills for those suspected of having Prinzmetal’s variant angina.
