INDERIDE-80/25 vs MOEXIPRIL HYDROCHLORIDE AND HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE
Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
INDERIDE-80/25 is a combination of propranolol (a non-selective beta-adrenergic receptor antagonist) and hydrochlorothiazide (a thiazide diuretic). Propranolol blocks beta-1 and beta-2 adrenergic receptors, reducing heart rate, myocardial contractility, and renin release, thereby lowering blood pressure. Hydrochlorothiazide inhibits the sodium-chloride symporter in the distal convoluted tubule of the kidney, increasing excretion of sodium, chloride, and water, reducing plasma volume.
Moexipril is an ACE inhibitor that inhibits the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, reducing vasoconstriction and aldosterone secretion. Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic that inhibits sodium and chloride reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubule, increasing diuresis and reducing plasma volume.
One tablet (80 mg propranolol/25 mg hydrochlorothiazide) orally twice daily.
One tablet (7.5 mg moexipril / 12.5 mg hydrochlorothiazide or 15 mg moexipril / 25 mg hydrochlorothiazide) orally once daily.

Propranolol: 3-6 hours (single dose), prolonged with chronic dosing (up to 12 hours). Hydrochlorothiazide: 6-15 hours; prolonged in renal impairment.
Moexiprilat (active metabolite) terminal half-life is approximately 2–9 hours (mean ~9 hours in hypertension; prolonged in renal impairment). Hydrochlorothiazide terminal half-life is 6–15 hours (mean ~9 hours; prolonged in renal impairment). Clinical context: Twice-daily dosing may be needed for 24-hour BP control; renal impairment requires dose adjustment.
Renal: 40% unchanged propranolol; 60% as metabolites. Biliary/fecal: minimal (less than 1%). Hydrochlorothiazide: renal 95% unchanged.
Moexipril is eliminated primarily by renal excretion (about 50% as unchanged drug and metabolites) and biliary/fecal excretion (about 50%). Hydrochlorothiazide is eliminated largely unchanged by renal excretion (≥95% via glomerular filtration and tubular secretion).
