Abstract

OBJECTIVE To investigate the pharmacokinetics of losartan and its major metabolite, E-3174, in Chinese Han healthy volunteers. METHODS Ten healthy volunteers (5 male and 5 female) were given 50 mg losartan potassium tablets. Blood samples were taken at predetermined time. The concentrations of losartan and E-3174 in plasma were determined by HPLC-fluorescence(FLU) method. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by DAS2.0 software and compared by SPSS13.0 software. RESULTS The pharmacokinetic parameters of losartan and E-3174 were as follows: ρmax ( 351±167) and ( 241±60) μg·L-1, tmax (1.35±1.06) and (3.60±1.68)h, t 1/2 (0.82±0.40) and (4.66±1.10) h, AUC0-24 (498±172) and (1 853±194)μg ·h·L-1, AUC0-∞ (523±184) and (1 960±182) μg ·h·L-1. CONCLUSION The pharmacokinetic characteristics and parameters of losartan and E-3174 had significant inter-individual variability. Individual dose regimens should be used in the clinical treatment.
