Benazepril is an ACE inhibitor used to treat hypertension by blocking the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, reducing vasoconstriction. Combining benazepril with potassium-sparing diuretics or potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia due to aldosterone suppression. Common side effects of benazepril include dry cough, hyperkalemia, and hypotension due to its effect on the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. Benazepril can be prescribed alone or in combination with other antihypertensive agents, such as diuretics or calcium channel blockers, to enhance blood pressure control. Benazepril has a long duration of action, allowing for once-daily dosing, which improves patient adherence and convenience in hypertension management.

On this podcast episode, I cover loratadine pharmacology, adverse effects, drug interactions, and much more. Loratatdine is a second generation antihistamine. It has a lower incidence of central nervous system adverse effects compared to first-generation antihistamines like diphenhydramine. Loratadine dosing varies in pediatric patients and those with renal impairment. I get into the details on this podcast episode. Drug interactions aren't common with loratadine but I discuss a few that may be clinically significant.

    Modafinil Pharmacology Podcast
    Mar 13 2025
    Modafinil (Provigil) is a CNS stimulant medication. I cover modafinil pharmacology, adverse effects, drug interactions, and much more on this podcast episode. You should be aware that modafinil is a Schedule 4 controlled substance so it does carry a risk of dependence and addiction. Modafinil can cause CYP3A4 induction and lead to lowering the concentrations of many medications. This includes antiepileptic agents and oral contraceptives. The most common adverse effects of modafinil include ramping up the body and causing symptoms such as anxiety and insomnia. Cardiovascular changes are a risk with modafinil as this medication can contribute to hypertension and tachycardia.
