ABSTRACT
AIMS:
In vitro study showed that benidipine is exclusively metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A. This study evaluated the effect of rifampin on the enantioselective disposition and anti-hypertensive effect of benidipine.METHODS:
Benidipine (8 mg) was administered to healthy subjects with or without repeated rifampin dosing, in a crossover design. Plasma concentrations of (S)-(S)-(+)-α and (R)-(R)-(-)-α isomers of benidipine and blood pressure were measured for up to 24 h after dosing. In addition, CYP3A metabolic capacity was evaluated in each subject using oral clearance of midazolam.RESULTS:
The exposure of (S)-(S)-(+)-α-benidipine was greater than that of (R)-(R)-(-)-α-benidipine by approximately three-fold following single dose of benidipine. Repeated doses of rifampin significantly decreased the exposure of both isomers. Geometric mean ratios (GMRs) (95% CI) of Cmax and AUC∞ for (S)-(S)-(+)-α-benidipine were 0.14 (0.10-0.18) and 0.12 (0.08-0.18), respectively. GMRs (95% CI) of Cmax and AUC∞ for (R)-(R)-(-)-α-benidipine were 0.10 (0.06-0.17) and 0.10 (0.06-0.17), respectively. Oral clearances of both isomers were increased equally by approximately 10-fold. There were no significant differences in cardiovascular effect following benidipine administration between control and rifampin treatment. CYP3A activity using midazolam did not appear to correlate with oral clearance of benidipine.CONCLUSIONS:
After single administration of racemic benidipine, enantioselective disposition of (S)-(S)-(+)-α- and (R)-(R)-(-)-α-benidipine was observed. Treatments with rifampin significantly decreased the exposure of both isomers but appeared to marginally affect its blood pressure-lowering effect in healthy subjects. Impact of coadministration of rifampin on the treatment effects of benidipine should be assessed in hypertensive patients.Palavras-chave
