Avoid or use alternative drug ECG monitoring recommended with concomitant medication that prolong QT interval etc Spironolactone +Hydrocortisone : Spironolactone will increase the level or effect of hydrocortisone by Glycoprotein efflux transporter MINOR Hydrocortisone + Furosemide : Pharmacokinetic Synergism Risk Of Hypokalemia Hydrocortisone +Monletlukast : Hydrocortisone Decrease The effect of montelukast by affecting enzyme CYP3A4Metabolism
RATIONALITY OF PRESCRIBING : There should be a thorough assessment and training of knowledge of appropriate drugs or antibiotic therapy ; among the healthcare workers including type of antibiotic dosage and duration of treatment should be or to be recommended by national guidelines

A variety of organisms, including bacteria, viruses and fungi, can cause pneumonia . ABOU T THE DRUGS : Inj . Augumentin dose 1.2 mg BD : Mechanism of action - Augmentum binds to penicillin binding protein With in the bacterial cell and inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis ADR- diarrhea nausea vomiting meiosis and hypersensitivity reaction Monitoring parameters-monitor liver function test and renal function test cautiously use the drug Tab. Lasilactone dose 20 mgBD : Mechanism of action- lasilactone contains a short acting diuretic and a long acting aldosterone antagonist prevent the buildup of extra water in your body increase urine excretion ADR –feeling confusion lack of energy headache Monitoring parameters electrolyte monitoring renal function test monitoring
