Olmesartan medoxomil is rapidly and completely bioactivated by ester hydrolysis to olmesartan during absorption from the gastrointestinal tract. This rapid first-pass metabolism was confirmed by the lack of measurable amounts of olmesartan medoxomil in plasma or excreta. This first-pass metabolism is not driven by cytochrome enzymes and hence it is not expected to interact with other drugs via this mechanism. The pharmacologically active moiety does not appear to undergo further metabolism.

代谢
紧随奥美沙坦酯在吸收过程中迅速且完全转化为奥美沙坦之后,奥美沙坦几乎没有进一步代谢。
Following the rapid and complete conversion of olmesartan medoxomil to olmesartan during absorption, there is virtually no further metabolism of olmesartan.
IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Olmesartan is a white to light yellowish-powder or crystalline powder that is formulated into oral tablets. Olmesartan is an angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor antagonist. It is used alone or in combination with other classes of antihypertensive agents (e.g., thiazide diuretics) in the management of hypertension. HUMAN EXPOSURE AND TOXICITY: Limited data are available related to drug overdose in humans. The most likely manifestations of olmesartan overdose include hypotension and tachycardia; bradycardia could be encountered if parasympathetic (vagal) stimulation occurs. While olmesartan can be used in hypertensive children, it is not approved for use in children less one 1 year of age. Drugs that act directly on the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) can have effects on the development of immature kidneys. The use of olmesartan in pregnancy is also contraindicated. While use during the first trimester does not suggest a risk of major anomalies, use during the second and third trimester may cause teratogenicity and severe fetal and neonatal toxicity. Fetal toxic effects may include anuria, oligohydramnios, fetal hypocalvaria, intrauterine growth restriction, premature birth, and patent ductus arteriosus. Anuria-associated anhydramnios/oligohydramnios may produce fetal limb contractures, craniofacial deformation, and pulmonary hypoplasia. Severe anuria and hypotension, resistant to both pressor agents and volume expansion, may occur in the newborn following in utero exposure to olmesartan. ANIMAL STUDIES: Olmesartan was not carcinogenic when administered by dietary administration to rats for up to 2 years. Also, the fertility of male and female rats was unaffected by administration of olmesartan. No teratogenic effects were observed when drug was administered to pregnant rats at oral doses up to 1000 mg/kg/day or pregnant rabbits at oral doses up to 1 mg/kg/day. However, significant decreases in pup birth weight and weight gain were observed in rats. In addition, delays in developmental milestones (delayed separation of ear auricula, eruption of lower incisors, appearance of abdominal hair, descent of testes, and separation of eyelids) and dose-dependent increases in the incidence of dilation of the renal pelvis were observed in rats. Olmesartan tested negative in the in vitro Syrian hamster embryo cell transformation assay and showed no evidence of genetic toxicity in the Ames (bacterial mutagenicity) test. However, the drug was shown to induce chromosomal aberrations in cultured cells in vitro (Chinese hamster lung) and tested positive for thymidine kinase mutations in the in vitro mouse lymphoma assay. Olmesartan tested negative in vivo for mutations in the MutaMouse intestine and kidney and for clastogenicity in mouse bone marrow (micronucleus test) at oral doses of up to 2000 mg/kg.

When taken orally, the prodrug olmesartan medoxomil is rapidly absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract and metabolized to olmesartan. The esterification with medoxomil was created with the intention of increasing olmesartan bioavailability from 4.5% to 28.6%. Oral administration of 10-160 mg of olmesartan has been shown to reach peak plasma concentration of 0.22-2.1 mg/L after 1-3 hours with an AUC of 1.6-19.9mgh/L. The pharmacokinetic profile of olmesartan has been observed to be nearly linear and dose-dependent under the therapeutic range. The steady-state level of olmesartan is achieved after once a day dosing during 3 to 5 days.
The main elimination route of olmesartan is in the unchanged form through the feces. From the systemically bioavailable dose, about 10-16% is eliminated in the urine.

In rats, olmesartan crossed the blood-brain barrier poorly, if at all. Olmesartan passed across the placental barrier in rats and was distributed to the fetus.
