Drug-induced hyperkalaemia

Lisinopril
Losartan
Spironolactone
Slow K.


The drugs listed may cause hyperkalaemia, although this is not usually clinically significant when used alone at therapeutic doses. The development of significant drug-induced hyperkalaemia is more likely when more than one of these agents is used in combination, or if the patient has co-existing renal impairment.
