/BOXED WARNING/ WARNING: FETAL TOXICITY. When pregnancy is detected, discontinue Avapro as soon as possible. Drugs that act directly on the renin-angiotensin system can cause injury and death to the developing fetus.
NIH; DailyMed. Current Medication Information for Avapro (Irbesartan) Tablet (Revised: September 2012). Available from, as of October 9, 2014: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=b7f1a9ef-c7bb-465c-e4d7-a41395205cad
Use of drugs that act on the renin-angiotensin system during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy reduces fetal renal function and increases fetal and neonatal morbidity and death. Resulting oligohydramnios can be associated with fetal lung hypoplasia and skeletal deformations. Potential neonatal adverse effects include skull hypoplasia, anuria, hypotension, renal failure, and death. When pregnancy is detected, discontinue Avapro as soon as possible. These adverse outcomes are usually associated with use of these drugs in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy. Most epidemiologic studies examining fetal abnormalities after exposure to antihypertensive use in the first trimester have not distinguished drugs affecting the renin-angiotensin system from other antihypertensive agents. Appropriate management of maternal hypertension during pregnancy is important to optimize outcomes for both mother and fetus. In the unusual case that there is no appropriate alternative to therapy with drugs affecting the renin-angiotensin system for a particular patient, apprise the mother of the potential risk to the fetus. Perform serial ultrasound examinations to assess the intra-amniotic environment. If oligohydramnios is observed, discontinue Avapro, unless it is considered lifesaving for the mother. Fetal testing may be appropriate, based on the week of pregnancy. Patients and physicians should be aware, however, that oligohydramnios may not appear until after the fetus has sustained irreversible injury.

Neonates with a history of in utero exposure to Avapro: If oliguria or hypotension occurs, direct attention toward support of blood pressure and renal perfusion. Exchange transfusions or dialysis may be required as a means of reversing hypotension and/or substituting for disordered renal function.

FDA Pregnancy Risk Category: D /POSITIVE EVIDENCE OF RISK. Studies in humans, or investigational or post-marketing data, have demonstrated fetal risk. Nevertheless, potential benefits from the use of the drug may outweigh the potential risk. For example, the drug may be acceptable if needed in a life-threatening situation or serious disease for which safer drugs cannot be used or are ineffective./

Absorption
Irbesartan is 60-80% bioavailable with a Tmax of 1.5-2hours. Taking irbesartan with food does not affect the bioavailability. In one study, healthy subjects were given single or multiple oral doses of 150mg, 300mg, 600mg, and 900mg of irbesartan. A single 150mg dose resulted in an AUC of 9.73.0g\hr/mL, a Tmax of 1.5 hours, a half life of 167 hours, and a Cmax of 1.90.4g/mL. A single 300mg dose resulted in an AUC of 20.05.2g\hr/mL, a Tmax of 1.5 hours, a half life of 147 hours, and a Cmax of 2.90.9g/mL. A single 600mg dose resulted in an AUC of 32.611.9g\hr/mL, a Tmax of 1.5 hours, a half life of 148 hours, and a Cmax of 4.91.2g/mL. A single 900mg dose resulted in an AUC of 44.820.0g\hr/mL, a Tmax of 1.5 hours, a half life of 177 hours, and a Cmax of 5.31.9g/mL. Multiple 150mg doses resulted in an AUC of 9.33.0g\hr/mL, a Tmax of 1.5 hours, a half life of 114 hours, and a Cmax of 2.040.4g/mL. Multiple 300mg doses resulted in an AUC of 19.85.8g\hr/mL, a Tmax of 2.0 hours, a half life of 115 hours, and a Cmax of 3.30.8g/mL. Multiple 600mg doses resulted in an AUC of 31.99.7g\hr/mL, a Tmax of 1.5 hours, a half life of 157 hours, and a Cmax of 4.40.7g/mL. Multiple 900mg doses resulted in an AUC of 34.29.3g\hr/mL, a Tmax of 1.8 hours, a half life of 146 hours, and a Cmax of 5.62.1g/mL.
Route of Elimination
20% of a radiolabelled oral dose of irbesartan is recovered in urine, and the rest is recovered in the feces. <2% of the dose is recovered in urine as the unchanged drug.
Volume of Distribution
The volume of distribution of irbesartan is 53-93L.
Clearance
Total plasma clearance of irbesartan is 157-176mL/min while renal clearance is 3.0-3.5mL/min.
Irbesartan is an orally active agent that does not require biotransformation into an active form. The oral absorption of irbesartan is rapid and complete with an average absolute bioavailability of 60% to 80%. Following oral administration of Avapro, peak plasma concentrations of irbesartan are attained at 1.5 to 2 hours after dosing. Food does not affect the bioavailability of Avapro. Irbesartan exhibits linear pharmacokinetics over the therapeutic dose range. The terminal elimination half-life of irbesartan averaged 11 to 15 hours. Steady-state concentrations are achieved within 3 days. Limited accumulation of irbesartan (<20%) is observed in plasma upon repeated once-daily dosing.

Irbesartan is 90% bound to serum proteins (primarily albumin and a1-acid glycoprotein) with negligible binding to cellular components of blood. The average volume of distribution is 53 liters to 93 liters. Total plasma and renal clearances are in the range of 157 mL/min to 176 mL/min and 3.0 mL/min to 3.5 mL/min, respectively. With repetitive dosing, irbesartan accumulates to no clinically relevant extent.

Irbesaran is largely metabolized by glucuronidation and oxidation in the liver. The majority of metabolism occurs through the action of CYP2C9 with a negligible contribution from CYP3A4. Some hydroxylation also occurs in irbesartan metabolism. Irbesartan can be glucuronidated by UGT1A3 to the M8 metabolite, oxidized to the M3 metabolite, or hydroxylated by CYP2C9 to one of the M4, M5, or M7 metabolites. The M4, M5, and M7 metabolites are all hydroxylated to become the M1 metabolite, which is then oxidized to the M2 metabolite. The M4 metabolite can also be oxidized to the M6 metabolite before hydroxylation to the M2 metabolite. Finally, the minor metabolite SR 49498 is generated from irbesartan by an unknown mechanism.
Irbesartan is metabolized via glucuronide conjugation and oxidation. Following oral or intravenous administration of (14)C-labeled irbesartan, more than 80% of the circulating plasma radioactivity is attributable to unchanged irbesartan. The primary circulating metabolite is the inactive irbesartan glucuronide conjugate (approximately 6%). The remaining oxidative metabolites do not add appreciably to irbesartan's pharmacologic activity. Irbesartan and its metabolites are excreted by both biliary and renal routes. Following either oral or intravenous administration of (14)C-labeled irbesartan, about 20% of radioactivity is recovered in the urine and the remainder in the feces, as irbesartan or irbesartan glucuronide. In vitro studies of irbesartan oxidation by cytochrome P450 isoenzymes indicated irbesartan was oxidized primarily by 2C9; metabolism by 3A4 was negligible. Irbesartan was neither metabolized by, nor did it substantially induce or inhibit, isoenzymes commonly associated with drug metabolism (1A1, 1A2, 2A6, 2B6, 2D6, 2E1). There was no induction or inhibition of 3A4.

Irbesartan prevents angiotensin II binding to the AT1 receptor in tissues like vascular smooth muscle and the adrenal gland. Irbesartan and its active metabolite bind the AT1 receptor with 8500 times more affinity than they bind to the AT2 receptor. Irbesartan's prevention of angiotensin II binding causes vascular smooth muscle relaxation and prevents the secretion of aldosterone, lowering blood pressure. Angiotensin II would otherwise bind to the AT1 receptor, inducing vasoconstriction and aldosterone secretion, raising blood pressure.
Angiotensin II is a potent vasoconstrictor formed from angiotensin I in a reaction catalyzed by angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE, kininase II). Angiotensin II is the principal pressor agent of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and also stimulates aldosterone synthesis and secretion by adrenal cortex, cardiac contraction, renal resorption of sodium, activity of the sympathetic nervous system, and smooth muscle cell growth. Irbesartan blocks the vasoconstrictor and aldosterone-secreting effects of angiotensin II by selectively binding to the AT1 angiotensin II receptor. There is also an AT2 receptor in many tissues, but it is not involved in cardiovascular homeostasis. Irbesartan is a specific competitive antagonist of AT1 receptors with a much greater affinity (more than 8500-fold) for the AT1 receptor than for the AT2 receptor and no agonist activity. Blockade of the AT1 receptor removes the negative feedback of angiotensin II on renin secretion, but the resulting increased plasma renin activity and circulating angiotensin II do not overcome the effects of irbesartan on blood pressure. Irbesartan does not inhibit ACE or renin or affect other hormone receptors or ion channels known to be involved in the cardiovascular regulation of blood pressure and sodium homeostasis. Because irbesartan does not inhibit ACE, it does not affect the response to bradykinin; whether this has clinical relevance is not known.
