    Notes: Abstract To prevent drug accumulation and adverse effects the dose of hydrophilic angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, e. g. lisinopril, must be reduced in patients with renal failure. To obtain a rational basis for dose recommendations, we undertook a prospective clinical trial. After 15 days of lisinopril treatment pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters were determined in patients with advanced renal failure (n=8; endogenous creatinine clearance [CLCR]: 18 ml·min−1·1.73m−2) and in healthy subjects with normal renal function (n=16; CLCR: 107 ml·min−1·1.73m−2). The volunteers received 10 mg lisinopril once daily, the daily dose in patients (1.1–2.2 mg) was adjusted to the individual CLCR according to the method of Dettli [13]. After 15 days of lisinopril treatment the mean maximal serum concentration (C max) in patients was lower than in volunteers (30.7 vs 40.7 ng·ml−1, while the mean area under the concentration-time curve (AUC 0–24 h) was higher (525 vs 473 ng·h−1·ml−1). ACE activity on day 15 was almost completely inhibited in both groups. Plasma renin activity, angiotensin I and angiotensin II levels documented marked inhibition of converting enzyme in volunteers and patients. Furthermore, average mean arterial blood pressure in patients decreased by 5 mmHg and proteinuria from 3.9–2.7 g per 24 h after 15 days of treatment with the reduced dose of lisinopril. Adjustment of the dose of lisinopril prevents significant accumulation of the drug in patients with advanced renal failure during chronic therapy. Mean serum levels did not exceed this in subjects with normal renal function receiving a standard dose. Despite substantial dose reduction, blood pressure and proteinuria decreases were observed.

    Notes: Abstract The influence of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition on acute extrarenal and renal potassium elimination in stable chronic renal failure has been examined in 10 male patients median age 44 y; mean CLCR 42 ml·min−1·1.73 m−2. In a double blind, placebo-controlled cross-over study, K+ 0.3 or 0.4 mmol·kg−1 body weight was infused IV on two occasions while the patients also received an infusion either of placebo or 0.5 mg of the ACE inhibitor perindoprilat in random order. Plasma K+ levels and urinary K+ excretion were measured at regular intervals. During the study patients adhered to an isocaloric diet providing a standardised daily intake of potassium and sodium (50 mmol K+ and 40 mmol Na+). The median rise in plasma K+ was not significantly different after placebo (Δ K 0.66 mmol·1−1) compared with to the infusion of perindoprilat (Δ K 0.66 mmol·1−1). The median baseline urinary K+ excretion rate was 6.5 mmol·3 h−1 before the placebo infusion and 5.9 mmol·3 h−1 before infusion of perindoprilat. During the potassium load, the urinary excretion rate rose to 16.1 mmol·3 h−1 (after placebo) and 15.1 mmol·3 h−1 after perindoprilat in the first 3 h, and it returned almost to the baseline value within the next 3 h (5.6 mmol·3 h−1 after placebo and 5.7 mmol·3 h−1 after perindoprilat); the differences were not statistically significant. With perindoprilat a decrease in mean arterial blood pressure and ACE activity, an increase in renin plasma activity and a decrease in aldosterone concentrations were observed compared to the placebo infusion. There was no significant differences plasma in adrenaline or insulin levels after either infusion. Thus, ACE inhibition did not interfere either with the extrarenal or the renal disposal of an acute potassium load in patients with chronic renal failure.
