Leaflet: information for the user
Trinomia 100 mg/40 mg/10 mg hard capsules
acido acetilsalicílico/atorvastatina/ramipril
Read this leaflet carefully before you start taking this medicine, because it contains important information for you.
Trinomia capsules contain three substances: acetylsalicylic acid, atorvastatin, and ramipril.
Trinomia is used as a substitute treatment in adequately controlled adult patients with the three substances (acetylsalicylic acid, atorvastatin, and ramipril) taken at the same time at equivalent doses, to reduce the risk of suffering a cardiovascular accident, when the patient has already suffered a previous cardiovascular event.
Do not take Trinomia:
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 conserve potassium, and other medications that may increase potassium levels in the blood (e.g., trimethoprim and cotrimoxazole for bacterial infections; ciclosporina, an immunosuppressant used to prevent organ transplant rejection; and heparin, a medication used to dilute blood to prevent clots).
Warnings and precautions
Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take Trinomia:
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 condition.
The risk of muscle destruction is higher in certain patients. Consult your doctor if you fall into any of the following categories:
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).
