Acid Acetilsalicylic/Atorvastatin/Ramipril

Read this entire leaflet carefully before you start taking this medicine, as it contains important information for you.

  • Keep this leaflet, as you may need to read it again.
  • If you have any questions, consult your doctor or pharmacist.
  • This medicine has been prescribed for you only, and you must not give it to others even if they have the same symptoms as you, as it may harm them.
  • If you experience any side effects, consult your doctor or pharmacist, even if they are not listed in this leaflet. See section 4.

1. What is Trinomia and for what it is used

Trinomia capsules contain three substances: acetylsalicylic acid, atorvastatin, and ramipril.

  • Acetylsalicylic acid belongs to a group of substances called antiplatelet agents, which help prevent blood cells from adhering to each other and forming a clot.
  • Atorvastatin belongs to a group of substances called statins, which are medications that regulate lipids (fats) and are used to reduce the amount of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood, when this cannot be achieved through a low-fat diet and necessary lifestyle changes in the patient. If you have an increased risk of suffering from heart diseases, atorvastatin may also be used to reduce this risk, even when your cholesterol levels are normal. During treatment, you must follow a standard low-cholesterol diet.
  • Ramipril belongs to a group of substances called ACE inhibitors that act by reducing the production of substances in the body that could increase blood pressure; it makes blood vessels relax and increase in diameter, making it easier for the heart to pump blood throughout the body.

Trinomia is used as a substitution treatment in adequately controlled adult patients with the three substances (acetylsalicylic acid, atorvastatin, and ramipril) taken simultaneously at equivalent doses, to reduce the risk of suffering a cardiovascular event, when the patient has already experienced a previous cardiovascular event.

2. What you need to know before starting to take Trinomia

Do not take Trinomia:

  • if you are allergic to acetylsalicylic acid, other salicylates, or tartrazine (a coloring substance). Signs of an allergic reaction include, among others, rash, difficulty swallowing or breathing, swelling of the lips, face, throat, or tongue.
  • if you are allergic to ramipril or another ACE inhibitor.
  • if you are allergic to atorvastatin, other similar compounds used to reduce blood lipids, or any other components of the medication (listed in Section 6).
  • if you are allergic to soy or peanuts.
  • if you have previously experienced asthma attacks or other hypersensitivity reactions to certain medications for pain, fever, or inflammation (salicylates or other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs).
  • if you have recurrent active peptic ulcers or a history of and/or gastrointestinal bleeding, or other types of bleeding such as cerebral vascular hemorrhage.
  • if you have a high risk of bleeding (hemophilia).
  • if you have uncontrolled heart disease (severe heart failure).
  • if you are taking 15 mg or more of methotrexate per week.
  • if you have diabetes or kidney insufficiency and are being treated with a blood pressure medication containing aliskiren.
  • if you have nasal polyps (inflamed nodules inside the nose) associated with asthma.
  • if you have severe liver or kidney disease.
  • if abnormal liver function test results have been obtained in blood tests.
  • if you are a fertile woman and do not use a reliable contraceptive method.
  • if you are pregnant or trying to become pregnant.
  • if you are breastfeeding.
  • if you are taking:
    • protease inhibitors for HIV, such as tipranavir or ritonavir (medications used to treat HIV).
    • ciclosporina (a medication often used in patients undergoing organ transplantation).
  • if you have ever experienced a severe allergic reaction called angioedema. Its symptoms include: itching, urticaria, red marks on the hands, feet, and throat, swelling of the throat and tongue, swelling around the eyes and lips, difficulty breathing and swallowing.
  • if you are undergoing dialysis or any other type of blood filtration procedure. Depending on the device used, Trinomia may not be suitable for you.
  • if you have renal problems that involve a reduction in blood flow to the kidneys (renal artery stenosis).
  • if you have abnormally low or unstable blood pressure. Your doctor will perform the necessary evaluation.
  • if the patient is under 18 years of age. In children under 16 years with fever, flu, or chickenpox, there is a risk of Reye's syndrome.
  • if you are using the combination of glecaprevir/pibrentasvir for the treatment of hepatitis C.
  • if you have taken or are currently taking sacubitril/valsartan, a medication used to treat a type of chronic heart failure in adults, as the risk of angioedema (rapid swelling under the skin in an area such as the throat) is high.
  • if you are taking any of the following medications, the risk of angioedema may increase:
  • racecadotril, a medication used to treat diarrhea.
  • medications used to prevent organ transplant rejection and for cancer (e.g., temsirolimus, sirolimus, everolimus).
  • vildagliptin, a medication used to treat diabetes.

Especially, consult your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have taken recently, or may need to take any of the following medications:

potassium supplements (including salt substitutes) and diuretics that save potassium, and other medications that may increase the amount of potassium in the blood (e.g., trimethoprim and cotrimoxazole for bacterial infections; ciclosporina, an immunosuppressive medication used to prevent organ transplant rejection; and heparin, a medication used to dilute the blood to prevent clots).

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take Trinomia:

  • if you are allergic to other pain medications or anti-inflammatory medications, other fever or rheumatism medications other than acetylsalicylic acid or other substances that cause allergies.
  • if you suffer from any other type of allergy (e.g., skin reactions, itching, urticaria).
  • if you have asthma bronchial, hay fever, nasal mucosa inflammation, or chronic lung diseases.
  • before a surgical operation or small interventions, such as tooth extractions, as there may be a greater tendency to bleeding. You may need to stop taking Trinomia for a short period.
  • if you have had ulcers or intestinal or stomach bleeding in the past.
  • if you are receiving simultaneous treatment with medications to prevent blood clot formation, pain medications, fever or inflammation medications (other than nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen), corticosteroids (to treat allergies or inflammation) or antidepressants such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs).
  • if you are taking or have taken in the last 7 days a medication containing fusidic acid (used to treat bacterial infections) by mouth or injection. The combination of fusidic acid and Trinomia may cause severe muscle problems (rhabdomyolysis).
  • if you are taking any of the following medications used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension):
    • an angiotensin II receptor antagonist (ARA) (also known as "sartanes" - e.g., valsartan, telmisartan, irbesartan), particularly if you have kidney problems related to diabetes.
    • Aliskiren
  • Your doctor may need to monitor your renal function, blood pressure, and electrolyte levels in the blood (e.g., potassium) at regular intervals. See also the information under the heading “Do not take Trinomia”
  • if you have or have had heart, liver, or kidney problems, Trinomia may not be suitable for you.
  • if you have a deficiency of the glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase enzyme.
  • if you are at risk of developing gout, as acetylsalicylic acid may reduce the excretion of uric acid. In certain circumstances, this could cause a gout attack.
  • Your doctor will perform a blood test before you start taking Trinomia and, subsequently, at regular intervals during treatment. This will allow them to check the proper functioning of your liver.
  • if you drink large amounts of alcohol.
  • if you have severe respiratory failure.
  • if you have lost a large amount of salt or fluid from your body (through vomiting, diarrhea, excessive sweating, low-sodium diet, long-term diuretic use, or dialysis treatment).
  • if you are undergoing desensitization treatment for bee or wasp stings.
  • if you have high levels of potassium in the blood (detected in blood tests).
  • if you have a vascular collagen disease, such as scleroderma or systemic lupus erythematosus.
  • if you have or have had myasthenia (a disease that causes generalized muscle weakness, which in some cases affects the muscles used for breathing) or ocular myasthenia (a disease that causes weakness of the eye muscles), as statins may sometimes worsen the disease or cause myasthenia (see Section 4).

Immediately contact your doctor if you experience unknown muscle pain, sensitivity, or weakness. This is because, in rare cases, muscle disorders can be severe, such as renal damage; in very rare cases, patient death has occurred.

Also, inform your doctor or pharmacist if you experience persistent muscle weakness. Additional tests and medications may be necessary to diagnose and treat this problem.

The risk of muscle destruction is higher in certain patients. Consult your doctor if you fall into any of the following categories:

  • if you have had a previous stroke with brain bleeding, or have small fluid embolisms in the brain due to previous strokes.
  • if you have kidney problems.
  • if you have thyroid problems.
  • if you have experienced muscle problems during treatment with other medications to reduce lipids (e.g., other statins or fibrates).
  • if you or a close relative suffer from hereditary muscle disorders.
  • if you regularly consume large amounts of alcohol.
  • if you are over 70 years old.

If this is the case, your doctor will ask you to undergo a blood test before and, possibly, during treatment to assess the risk of you experiencing adverse muscle effects.

It is known that the risk of adverse muscle effects, e.g., rhabdomyolysis, increases when certain medications are taken simultaneously (see Section 2. Taking Trinomia with other medications).

While taking this medication, your doctor will perform strict monitoring if you are diabetic or at risk of developing diabetes. You are at risk of developing diabetes if you have high blood sugar and lipid levels, obesity, and high blood pressure.

Generally, it is recommended to correct dehydration, hypovolemia, or electrolyte deficiency before starting treatment (in patients with heart failure, however, this correction should be carefully weighed against the risk of volume overload).

Taking Trinomia with other medications

Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have taken recently, or may need to take any other medication. This is because Trinomia may affect the way other medications work. Additionally, some medications may affect the way Trinomia works.

Trinomia contains acetylsalicylic acid, a substance that may affect the way other medications work. Additionally, some medications may affect the way acetylsalicylic acid works. Consult your doctor if you are taking any of the following medications, which may increase the risk of adverse effects:

  • anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin and heparin) and medications to dissolve blood clots, as they may increase the risk of bleeding. Be very attentive to signs of internal and external bleeding (e.g., hematomas) before starting treatment with these medications.
  • other inhibitors of platelet aggregation (medications that inhibit platelet coagulation or agglutination) such as ticlopidine and clopidogrel, as they may increase the risk of bleeding.
  • medications containing cortisone or cortisone-like substances, such as prednisolone (except for topical products or cortisone treatment for Addison's disease), as they increase the risk of adverse effects in the digestive tract.
  • other pain or anti-inflammatory medications (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen or indomethacin) and for rheumatism, as they generally increase the risk of bleeding and gastrointestinal ulcers.
  • medications to reduce blood glucose levels (antidiabetics) as they may cause low blood glucose levels.
  • digoxin (a medication to strengthen the heart).
  • metotrexate (cancer treatment and certain rheumatic diseases).
  • valproic acid for epilepsy treatment.
  • selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) for depression treatment, as they may increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding.
  • ciclosporina (a medication often used in patients undergoing organ transplantation).
  • vancomycin (an antibiotic) as it may cause hearing problems.

Consult your doctor if you are taking any of the following medications, which may make acetylsalicylic acid less effective:

  • diuretics (e.g., furosemide, aldosterone antagonists such as spironolactone and canrenoate, and diuretics of the asa type such as furosemide).
  • medications that potentiate uric acid excretion (e.g., probenecid and benzbromarone)
  • ibuprofen: it may reduce the anti-aggregatory effect of acetylsalicylic acid.
  • if administered together, metamizole (a substance to reduce pain and fever) may reduce the effect of acetylsalicylic acid on platelet aggregation (blood cells coagulate and form a blood clot). Therefore, this combination should be used with caution in patients taking low doses of acetylsalicylic acid as a cardioprotector.

Consult your doctor if you are taking any of the following medications. They may be affected by acetylsalicylic acid:

  • interferon-alpha: acetylsalicylic acid may reduce the effect of interferon-alpha.
  • medications for manic-depressive syndromes (lithium).
  • antacids (for indigestion).
  • barbiturates (for convulsive disorders).
  • zidovudine (for HIV treatment).
  • phenytoin (for epilepsy treatment).
  • Acetylsalicylic acid may alter the results of blood and urine tests.

Trinomia contains atorvastatin, a substance that may affect the way other medications work. Additionally, some medications may affect the way Trinomia works. Furthermore, it may increase the risk of adverse effects or their intensity, including the severe muscle disorder described in the previous section “Warnings and precautions”). Consult your doctor if you are taking any of the following medications:

  • ciclosporina (a medication often used in patients undergoing organ transplantation).
  • certain antibiotics or antifungals, such as erythromycin, clarithromycin, telithromycin, ketoconazole, itraconazole, voriconazole, fluconazole, posaconazole, rifampicin
  • if you need to take fusidic acid orally to treat a bacterial infection, you will need to stop using this medication. Your doctor will indicate when you can restart Trinomia. The use of Trinomia with fusidic acid may cause muscle weakness, sensitivity, or pain (rhabdomyolysis). For more information on rhabdomyolysis, see Section 4.
  • medications for HIV treatment, such as ritonavir, lopinavir, atazanavir, indinavir, darunavir, saquinavir, efavirenz,the combination of tipranavir/ritonavir, etc.
  • other medications to regulate lipid levels, such as gemfibrozil, other fibrates, or colestipol.
  • some medications used to treat hepatitis C, e.g., telaprevir, boceprevir, and the combination of elbasvir/grazoprevir.
  • some calcium channel blockers used to treat angina or hypertension, such as amlodipine, diltiazem; medications to regulate heart rhythm, such as digoxin, verapamil, or amiodarone.
  • other medications known to interact with atorvastatin are ezetimibe (which reduces cholesterol), warfarin (to reduce blood clots), oral contraceptives, stiripentol (an anticonvulsant for epilepsy treatment), phenazone (a pain medication), cimetidine (an H2 receptor antagonist), colchicine (used to treat gout) and antacids (products for indigestion containing aluminum or magnesium).
  • over-the-counter medications: St. John's Wort or hypericum

Trinomia contains ramipril, a substance that may affect the way other medications work. Additionally, some medications may affect the way ramipril works. Consult your doctor if you are taking any of the following medications, which may increase the risk of adverse effects:

  • medications for cancer (chemotherapy).
  • medications to prevent organ transplant rejection, such as ciclosporina.
  • diuretics such as furosemide.
  • medications that may increase potassium levels in the blood, such as spironolactone, triamterene, amiloride, potassium salts, and heparin (to prevent clots).
  • steroidal anti-inflammatory medications, such as prednisolone.
  • allopurinol (to reduce uric acid levels in the blood).
  • procainamide (for heart rhythm problems).

Consult your doctor if you are taking any of the following medications, which may make ramipril less effective:

  • medications to treat hypotension, shock, heart failure, asthma, or allergies, such as ephedrine, norepinephrine, or adrenaline. Your doctor will need to check your blood pressure.

Consult your doctor if you are taking any of the following medications. They may be affected by ramipril:

  • medications for diabetes, such as oral medications to lower blood glucose and insulin. Ramipril may lower your blood sugar levels. Closely monitor your blood sugar levels when taking Trinomia.
  • lithium (for mental health problems). Ramipril may increase lithium levels in the blood. Your doctor will need to closely monitor your lithium levels in the blood.

Your doctor may need to modify your dose and/or take other precautions:

if you are taking an angiotensin II receptor antagonist (ARA) or aliskiren (see also the information under the headings “Do not take Trinomia” and “Warnings and precautions”).

if you fall into any of the above categories (or are unsure), consult your doctor before taking Trinomia.

Taking Trinomia with food, drinks, and alcohol

Alcohol increases the risk of bleeding and stomach or intestinal ulcers. Additionally, alcohol may have additive effects with medications used to lower blood pressure. Therefore, it is not recommended to drink alcohol while taking Trinomia.

Orange juice contains one or more compounds that alter the way the body uses medications, including Trinomia. It is recommended to avoid consuming orange juice.

Trinomia should be taken preferably after a meal (see Section 3).
