6. Contents of the pack and other information

Copalia HCT tablets contain three substances called amlodipine, valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide. All of these substances help to control high blood pressure.

Amlodipine belongs to a group of substances called calcium channel blockers . Amlodipine stops calcium from moving into the blood vessel wall, which stops the blood vessels from tightening.

Valsartan belongs to a group of substances called angiotensin-II receptor antagonists . Angiotensin II is produced by the body and makes the blood vessels tighten, thus increasing the blood pressure. Valsartan works by blocking the effect of angiotensin II.

Hydrochlorothiazide belongs to a group of substances called thiazide diuretics . Hydrochlorothiazide increases urine output, which also lowers blood pressure. As a result of all three mechanisms, the blood vessels relax and blood pressure is lowered.

Copalia HCT is used to treat high blood pressure in adult patients whose blood pressure is already controlled while taking amlodipine, valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide and who may benefit from taking one tablet containing all three substances.

Do not take Copalia HCT

if you are more than 3 months pregnant. (It is also recommended to avoid Copalia HCT in early pregnancy see Pregnancy section.)

if you are allergic to amlodipine or to any other calcium channel blockers, valsartan, hydrochlorothiazide, sulphonamide-derived medicines (medicines used to treat chest or urinary infections), or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6). If you think you may be allergic, do not take Copalia HCT and talk to your doctor.

if you have liver disease, destruction of the small bile ducts within the liver (biliary cirrhosis) leading to the build up of bile in the liver (cholestasis).

if you have severe kidney problems or if you are having dialysis.

if you are unable to produce urine (anuria).

if the level of potassium or sodium in your blood is too low despite treatment to increase the potassium or sodium levels in your blood.

if the level of calcium in your blood is too high despite treatment to reduce the calcium levels in your blood.

if you have gout (uric acid crystals in the joints).

if you have severe low blood pressure (hypotension).

if you have narrowing of the aortic valve (aortic stenosis) or cardiogenic shock (a condition where your heart is unable to supply enough blood to the body).

if you suffer from heart failure after a heart attack.

if you have diabetes or impaired kidney function and you are treated with a blood pressure lowering medicine containing aliskiren. If any of the above applies to you, do not take Copalia HCT and talk to your doctor.

Warnings and precautions Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Copalia HCT

if you have a low level of potassium or magnesium in your blood (with or without symptoms such as muscle weakness, muscle spasms, abnormal heart rhythm).

if you have a low level of sodium in your blood (with or without symptoms such as tiredness, confusion, muscle twitching, convulsions).

if you have a high level of calcium in your blood (with or without symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, constipation, stomach pain, frequent urination, thirst, muscle weakness and twitching).

if you have kidney problems, have had a kidney transplant or if you had been told that you have a narrowing of your kidney arteries.

if you have liver problems.

if you have or have had heart failure or coronary artery disease, particularly if you are prescribed the maximum dose of Copalia HCT (10 mg/320 mg/25 mg).

if you have experienced a heart attack. Follow your doctor s instructions for the starting dose carefully. Your doctor may also check your kidney function.

if your doctor has told you that you have a narrowing of the valves in your heart (called aortic or mitral stenosis ) or that the thickness of your heart muscle is abnormally increased (called obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy ).

if you suffer from aldosteronism. This is a disease in which the adrenal glands make too much of the hormone aldosterone If this applies to you, the use of Copalia HCT is not recommended.

if you suffer from a disease called systemic lupus erythematosus (also called lupus or SLE ).

if you have diabetes (high level of sugar in your blood).

if you have high levels of cholesterol or triglycerides in your blood.

if you experience skin reactions such as rash after sun exposure.

if you had an allergic reaction to other high blood pressure medicines or diuretics (a type of medicine also known as water tablets ), especially if you suffer from asthma and allergies

if you have been sick (vomiting or diarrhoea).

if you have experienced swelling, particularly of the face and throat, while taking other medicines (including angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors). If you get these symptoms, stop taking Copalia HCT and contact your doctor straight away. You should never take Copalia HCT again.

if you experience dizziness and/or fainting during treatment with Copalia HCT, tell your doctor as soon as possible.

if you experience a decrease in vision or eye pain. These could be symptoms of fluid accumulation in the vascular layer of the eye (choroidal effusion) or an increase of pressure in your eye and can happen within hours to a week of taking Copalia HCT. This can lead to permanent vision impairment, if not treated.

if you are taking any of the following medicines used to treat high blood pressure:

an ACE inhibitor (for example enalapril, lisinopril, ramipril), in particular if you have diabetes-related kidney problems.

aliskiren.

if you have had skin cancer or if you develop an unexpected skin lesion during the treatment. Treatment with hydrochlorothiazide, particularly long term use with high doses, may increase the risk of some types of skin and lip cancer (non-melanoma skin cancer). Protect your skin from sun exposure and UV rays while taking Copalia HCT.

if you experienced breathing or lung problems (including inflammation or fluid in the lungs) following hydrochlorothiazide intake in the past. If you develop any severe shortness of breath or difficulty breathing after taking Copalia HCT, seek medical attention immediately.

Your doctor may check your kidney function, blood pressure, and the amount of electrolytes (e.g. potassium) in your blood at regular intervals.

See also information under the heading Do not take Copalia HCT .

If any of these apply to you, talk to your doctor.

Children and adolescents The use of Copalia HCT in children and adolescents under 18 years of age is not recommended.

Elderly people (age 65 years and older) Copalia HCT can be used by people aged 65 years and over at the same dose as for other adults and in the same way as they have already taken the three substances called amlodipine, valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide. Elderly patients, particularly those taking the maximum dose of Copalia HCT (10 mg/320 mg/25 mg), should have their blood pressure checked regularly.

Other medicines and Copalia HCT Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines.

Copalia HCT with food, drink and alcohol Grapefruit and grapefruit juice should not be consumed by people who are prescribed Copalia HCT. This is because grapefruit and grapefruit juice can lead to an increase in the blood levels of the active substance amlodipine, which can cause an unpredictable increase in the blood pressure lowering effect of Copalia HCT. Talk to your doctor before drinking alcohol. Alcohol may make your blood pressure fall too much and/or increase the possibility of dizziness or fainting.

Pregnancy and breast-feeding Pregnancy You must tell your doctor if you think you are (or might become) pregnant. Your doctor will normally advise you to stop taking Copalia HCT before you become pregnant or as soon as you know you are pregnant and will advise you to take another medicine instead of Copalia HCT. Copalia HCT is not recommended in early pregnancy and must not be taken when more than 3 months pregnant, as it may cause serious harm to your baby if used after the third month of pregnancy.

Breast-feeding Tell your doctor if you are breast-feeding or about to start breast-feeding. Amlodipine has been shown to pass into breast milk in small amounts. Copalia HCT is not recommended for mothers who are breast-feeding, and your doctor may choose another treatment for you if you wish to breast-feed, especially if your baby is a newborn, or was born prematurely.

Ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking any medicine.

Driving and using machines This medicine may make you feel dizzy, drowsy, nauseous or have a headache. If you experience these symptoms, do not drive or use tools or machines.

Always take this medicine exactly as your doctor has told you. Check with your doctor if you are not sure. This will help you get the best results and lower the risk of side effects.

The usual dose of Copalia HCT is one tablet per day.

It is best to take the tablet at the same time each day. Morning is the best time.

Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water.

You can take Copalia HCT with or without food. Do not take Copalia HCT with grapefruit or grapefruit juice.

Depending on how you respond to the treatment, your doctor may suggest a higher or lower dose.

Do not exceed the prescribed dose.

If you take more Copalia HCT than you should If you have accidentally taken too many Copalia HCT tablets, talk to a doctor immediately. You may require medical attention. Excess fluid may accumulate in your lungs (pulmonary oedema) causing shortness of breath that may develop up to 24-48 hours after intake.

If you forget to take Copalia HCT If you forget to take a dose of this medicine, take it as soon as you remember and then take the next dose at its usual time. If it is almost time for your next dose you should simply take the next tablet at the usual time. Do not take a double dose (two tablets at once) to make up for a forgotten tablet.

If you stop taking Copalia HCT Stopping your treatment with Copalia HCT may cause your disease to get worse. Do not stop taking your medicine unless your doctor tells you to.

Always take this medicine, even if you are feeling well People who have high blood pressure often do not notice any signs of the problem. Many feel normal. It is very important that you take this medicine exactly as your doctor tells you to get the best results and reduce the risk of side effects. Keep your appointments with the doctor even if you are feeling well.

If you have any further questions on the use of this medicine, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
