概覽

厄貝沙坦是一種​血管張力素II受體拮抗劑 (ARB)​,主要用於人類醫學以控制高血壓和糖尿病腎病變。在獸醫學中,其使用經驗目前非常有限,但可作為 ACE 抑制劑(如依那普利或貝那普利)的替代或輔助藥物,用於治療​伴隨腎功能不全的犬隻高血壓​

​臨床要點:​ 當病患出現「ACE 逃逸現象」(即儘管使用 ACE 抑制劑,醛固酮濃度仍反彈)或無法耐受 ACE 抑制劑時,常會考慮使用 ARB。與需要肝臟轉化為活性代謝物的氯沙坦 (Losartan) 不同(犬隻對此轉化效率不佳),厄貝沙坦以其原型發揮活性,使其成為犬隻病患更可靠的選擇。

​主要特點:​

  • 可能對繼發於腎臟疾病的高血壓有用。
  • 缺乏用於犬隻心臟衰竭的充分文獻支持。
  • 由於具有致畸胎性,​嚴禁於懷孕期間使用​

作用機轉

Irbesartan selectively and competitively blocks the AT1 (Angiotensin II Type 1) receptor in the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS).

  • ​Pathway:​ Angiotensinogen → Angiotensin I → Angiotensin II.
  • Angiotensin II normally binds to AT1 receptors to cause potent vasoconstriction and stimulate aldosterone release.
  • By blocking the AT1 receptor, irbesartan prevents these effects, leading to vasodilation, decreased aldosterone synthesis, reduced potassium excretion, and increased sodium and water excretion.
  • ​Pharmacologic Advantage:​ It does not inhibit ACE (kininase II), so it does not interfere with bradykinin or substance P responses. Furthermore, it does not require hepatic conversion to an active metabolite, which is a significant pharmacokinetic advantage in dogs compared to losartan.

安全性與警告

禁忌症

  • Pregnancy (teratogenic)
  • Nursing/lactating animals
  • Hypotension
  • Uncorrected volume depletion
  • Uncorrected sodium depletion
  • Hypersensitivity to irbesartan

不良反應

  • Diarrhea
  • Dyspepsia (indigestion)
  • Fatigue or somnolence
  • Orthostatic hypotension
  • Dizziness

注意事項

​Important Warnings:​

  • ​Hypovolemia/Hyponatremia:​ Patients who are volume- or sodium-depleted must have these deficits corrected prior to initiating therapy to avoid acute hypotensive crises.
  • ​Pregnancy Warning:​ Irbesartan is highly teratogenic (FDA Category D). It causes fetal abnormalities (renal pelvic cavitation, hydroureter) and increased maternal death/spontaneous abortion. Discontinue immediately if pregnancy is detected.
  • ​Hypotension:​ Do not use in patients with pre-existing hypotension.

藥物交互作用

Other antihypertensive agents (e.g., amlodipine, ACE inhibitors)

Increased risk of additive hypotension. Use with caution and monitor blood pressure closely.

Diuretics

May exacerbate volume depletion and increase the risk of severe hypotension.

監測

  • Systemic blood pressure
  • Heart rate
  • Serum electrolytes (especially potassium)
  • BUN and Creatinine (renal function)
  • Clinical signs of adverse effects (GI upset, lethargy, weakness)

藥物動力學

半衰期

9 hours (single dose) to 21 hours (multiple doses)

吸收

In humans, absorption is rapid with a bioavailability of 60-80%. Peak levels occur in 1.5-2 hours. Bioavailability is not altered by food.

分佈

Highly protein-bound (90% in humans). Crosses the blood-brain barrier and placenta in small quantities.

代謝

Metabolized in the liver via glucuronidation and oxidation. Metabolites are inactive. Does not require conversion to an active metabolite to exert its effects.

排除

Eliminated primarily in the feces (both unchanged drug and metabolites) and to a lesser extent in the urine. Dosage adjustment is not required for renal dysfunction.

過量

​Toxicity Profile:​ Irbesartan has a wide margin of safety in acute overdose scenarios. Rats and mice have survived acute oral overdoses exceeding 2000 mg/kg.

​Clinical Signs of Overdose:​

  • Severe hypotension
  • Tachycardia (reflex) or bradycardia

​Treatment:​

  • Treatment is largely supportive and symptomatic.
  • Address hypotension with intravenous fluids and cardiovascular support as needed.
  • Contact an animal poison control center for specific guidance.
