Triamterine And Advil
UpdatedI take 30 mg methadone daily in 3 doses of 10 mg ea. for chronic pain. I am now also on triamterine hctz 37.5-25 mg a day.
Can I still take 2 Advil with one dose if methadone a day for break thru pain?
Also, I take 1 potassium supplement (99mg) daily. When I forget, I eat 1 or 2 bananas. Is any of this wrong when taking triamterine as stated above?

Hello, Maria! How are you?
The combination of Triamterene and potassium should only be taken together, if your doctor feels it is necessary. Both can increase potassium levels, and too much can be just as dangerous as not having enough in your body, according to the NIH. The Advil can also raise it, when taking with the Triamterene.
The FDA warns that the Advil should not be taken with the Triamterene, because they can increased the toxicity of each other, which could lead to kidney damage, or failure.
Have these all been prescribed for you?
