Because Acthar may cause elevation of blood pressure, salt and water retention, and increased excretion of potassium and calcium, in some patients, dietary salt restriction and potassium supplementation may be necessary. Please discuss dietary adjustments with your doctor.

Acthar can cause elevation of blood pressure, salt and water retention, and increased excretion of potassium and calcium. Dietary salt restriction and potassium supplementation may be necessary. Caution should be used in patients with hypertension, congestive heart failure, or renal insufficiency. Please discuss dietary adjustments with your doctor.
