» drug interaction:
Potassium and indomethacin (Indocin): as a prostaglandin inhibitor, indomethacin reduces renin and aldosterone, and consequently reduces potassium excretion and causes hyperkalemia (Goldszer, et al., 1981; 141: 802-804; Tan, et al., 1979; 90: 783-785; MacCarthy, et al., 1979; 1: 550)
