Consumer:

The use of carvedilol has rarely resulted in deterioration of renal function in patients with congestive heart failure. Patients with low blood pressure (systolic BP < 100 mm Hg), ischemic heart disease and diffuse vascular disease, and/or underlying renal impairment may be at greater risk. In these patients, monitoring of renal function is recommended during dosage titration, and the dosing reduced or discontinued accordingly.
