    Notes: Summary The time course of the blood pressure lowering effect and the dose-response relationship of the new angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor ramipril (HOE 498) were studied in 8 patients with essential hypertension. As compared with placebo, a single oral dose of 2.5 mg ramipril lowered systolic and diastolic blood pressure. The antihypertensive action of single oral doses of 5, 7.5 and 10 mg ramipril was more pronounced. No change in heart rate occurred. Angiotensin converting enzyme activity was suppressed after all doses of ramipril studied. Plasma renin activity increased after 2.5 mg and 5 mg ramipril. Plasma aldosterone was not affected by 2.5 mg, but it fell after 5 mg ramipril. Thus, ramipril produced prolonged inhibition (more than 12 hours) of angiotensin converting enzyme activity and lowered blood pressure in patients with essential hypertension.

    Notes: Summary In order to study the function of dopamine-β-hydroxylase (DBH) in human plasma, dopamine, its natural substrate, was infused intravenously in 22 healthy volunteers. Their plasma DBH activities showed great interindividual variations (31–301 units/ml). The infusion rates of dopamine required to increase systolic blood pressure (BP) by 30 mm Hg differed considerably between the subjects, and ranged from 3,0 to 11,6 µg/kg/min. No correlation could be shown between the various dopamine doses and individual plasma levels of DBH. It was concluded, therefore, that plasma DBH in the blood stream was enzymatically inactive. Experiments with human plasma DBH in vitro also support this interpretation. Consequently, interindividual differences in the effects on BP during dopamine infusion cannot be due to pressor effects of noradrenaline synthesized by plasma DBH.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of verapamil was studied in patients with end-stage chronic renal failure and in normal subjects after i.v. injection of 3 mg and a single oral dose of 80 mg. Plasma levels of verapamil and its active metabolite norverapamil were measured by HPLC. After i.v. injection, the terminal phase half-life and total plasma clearance of verapamil in both groups were similar. Haemodialysis did not change the time course of plasma verapamil levels after i.v. administration. After a single oral dose, the plasma levels of verapamil and norverapamil in both groups of subjects were similar. Subsequently, normal volunteers and patients with renal failure were treated for 5 days with oral verapamil 80 mg t.d.s. There was no difference between the 2 groups of subjects in the trough and peak levels of verapamil or of norverapamil. Intravenous and oral administration of the calcium channel blocking agent had similar effects on blood pressure, heart rate and the PR-interval in the electrocardiogram in both groups. The study demonstrated that the disposition of verapamil was similar in normal subjects and in patients with renal failure.

    Notes: Summary The beta-adrenergic blocking activity and haemodynamic effects of o-[2-hydroxy-3-(isopropylamino)-propoxy]-benzonitril (Kö 1313) have been studied in 22 patients. Antagonism of isoproterenol-induced tachycardia was used as a measure of the beta-adrenergic blocking activity. Kö 1313 1.0 mg had its maximum beta-adrenoceptor blocking effect 5–30 min after intravenous injection. Kö 1313 10.0 mg produced maximum betablockade 1–4 h after oral administration. 1.0 mg Kö 1313 injected intravenously had approximately the same beta-adrenergic blocking effect as 1.0 mg propranolol also given intravenously. After intravenous administration Kö 1313 was 3–4 times as potent as the same dose given orally. An intravenous dose of 2.0 mg Kö 1313 reduced the heart rate and produced insignificant fall in cardiac output. Total peripheral resistance was increased by Kö 1313.

    Notes: Summary The total and free steady-state plasma levels of nifedipine in patients with renal failure have been compared with those in subjects with normal renal function. Studies were done after administration of nifedipine 10 mg t.d.s. p.o. for 5 days, after i.v. infusion of 4·4 mg, and after a single 10 mg oral dose. The systemic clearance of nifedipine after a single i.v.-dose was higher in subjects with renal insufficiency (854 ml/min) than in those with normal renal function (468 ml/min). After the single oral dose the AUC (6100 ng·min·ml−1) and maximum plasma concentration (75.0 ng·ml−1) were lower than in subjects with normal renal function (19300 ng·ml−1; 122 ng·ml−1). The plasma protein binding of nifedipine averaged 95.5% in normal subjects and 94.8% in patients with renal failure. Although free and total steady-state plasma levels of nifedipine tended to be somewhat lower than normal in renal failure, the changes in pharmacokinetics and decreased protein binding of nifedipine did not result in a significantly different steady-state plasma level of the drug. The blood pressure response to a given plasma nifedipine level appeared to be enhanced in renal failure.
