The toxic and lethal effect on the fetus and newborn
Amlodipine
Drugs directly acting on the RAAS can cause injury and death of the fetus and newborn in appointing pregnant. Described isolated cases of ACE inhibitors during pregnancy.
The use of in II and III trimester of pregnancy, drugs that directly affect the RAAS is associated with damage of the fetus and newborn as hypotension, neonatal skull bone hypoplasia, anuria, reversible and irreversible renal failure and death. There have also been instances of oligohydramnion, presumably developed as a result of reduced renal function in the fetus. In these cases, oligohydramnios was associated with limb contractures, craniofacial deformations and hypoplastic lung of the fetus. In addition, there have been cases of premature birth, intrauterine growth retardation and cleft of the ductus arteriosus, however, the effects of the drug in these cases was found. Listed side effects, apparently, are not a result of the use of the drug in the first trimester of pregnancy. However, pregnant women who took drugs ARA in the first trimester should be informed of the consequences of taking these drugs in the II–III trimesters.
Depending on the duration of pregnancy, it is possible to apply a stress test to uterine contractions, stress-free test or assessment biophysical profile of the fetus. At the same time as the doctor and the patient should be aware that oligohydramnios may occur after the development of irreversible damage to the fetus. Children exposed to history in utero??????????? drugs ARA, should be under medical supervision because of the increased likelihood of hypotension, oliguria and hyperkalemia. In the case of oliguria in the first place a correction HELL and renal perfusion. Exchange blood transfusion or hemodialysis is necessary for the correction of arterial hypotension and/or as a substitution of kidney function.
Losartan
The use of in II and III trimestrah pregnancy drugs acting on the RAAS can cause serious injury or even death of the developing fetus, so when pregnancy taking losartan should be stopped immediately. Since renal perfusion of the fetus, depending on the RAAS develops in the second trimester of pregnancy, the risk to the fetus increases when taking losartan in II or III trimesters.
It is unknown whether the excretion of amlodipine and/or losartan in breast milk, but in preclinical studies in animals have observed significant concentrations of amlodipine and/or the active metabolite of losartan in breast milk. Asaar not recommended for use during breast-feeding.

Overdose:
Overdoses Asahara unknown.
Below are data on overdose of amlodipine and losartan taken separately.
Amlodipine
Symptoms: overdose amlodipine may cause excessive peripheral vasodilatation and possibly reflex tachycardia. In the described cases there was a long pronounced hypotensive effect, until shock and death.
Treatment: use activated charcoal to healthy volunteers immediately or within 2 h after ingestion of 10 mg of amlodipine reduces the absorption of the latter. If necessary shown gastric lavage. Clinically significant hypotension in overdose Ashara requires carrying out a complex of measures to normalize the status of SSS: it is necessary to lift the leg of the patient, to continuously monitor the functional parameters of the heart and respiratory system, BCC and volume of diuresis. To restore vascular tone and the AD may require the introduction of a vasoconstrictor, if you are sure that there are no contraindications to their use. To eliminate the blockade of calcium channels effectively in/with the introduction of calcium gluconate. Excretion of amlodipine by hemodialysis is unlikely.
Losartan
Symptoms: limited data Are available on overdose in humans. The most common symptoms: hypotension and tachycardia may develop bradycardia due to parasympathetic (vagal) stimulation.
Treatment: in the case of symptomatic arterial hypotension should designate supportive therapy. Neither losartan nor its active metabolite cannot be removed from the body by hemodialysis.
Method of application and dose:
Inside, regardless of meals, with a small amount of water once a day. To start treatment with Amsair necessary in the case of pre-titration of the doses of amlodipine and losartan, respectively, 1 table. Amsara 5 mg+50 mg or 5 mg+100 mg. If needed, direct switch from monotherapy with amlodipine or losartan therapy drug Asar. Asaar can be administered to patients of AD which is insufficiently controlled by amlodipine or losartan at the same doses that are present in combination (5/50 mg and 5/100 mg).
Patients simultaneously receiving losartan and amlodipine, may be transferred to Asar with the same doses of these drugs.
Use in renal failure
When Cl creatinine from 50 to 20 ml/min dose adjustment is not required.
Asaar is not recommended in patients with Cl creatinine less than 20 ml/min and hemodialysis patients, because may require dose adjustment of the drug components.
Use in patients with reduced BCC
Not recommended the use of the drug Amsaar in patients with reduced BCC (for example, when high doses of diuretics).
In the case of volume replacement the drug Asaar possible, if not recommended a lower dose of losartan to 25 mg.
Use in hepatic insufficiency
The use of the drug Asaar possible in patients with liver failure (less than 9 points on a scale child-Pugh), which by decision of the doctor allowed the appointment of losartan 50 mg.
Use in elderly
Drug Asar may be used in patients older than 65 years, with portability the dose losartan 50 mg.
Use in children and adolescents
Asaar not recommended for use in patients below 18 years due to insufficient data on the efficacy and safety of applying in this group (see "Contraindications").
