Angioedema Due to Losartan

Annals of Pharmacotherapy, 1999
OBJECTIVE: To report a case of angioedema associated with the angiotensin II receptor antagonist losartan. CASE SUMMARY: A 62-year-old African-American woman was admitted to the hospital for acute renal failure and uncontrolled hypertension. After attempting blood pressure control with three different agents, captopril was combined with metoprolol. The

Losartan

Drugs, 2003
Losartan is an orally active, selective, nonpeptide, angiotensin II AT(1) receptor antagonist. Losartan 50 or 100 mg/day was significantly more effective than placebo in reducing the incidence of a doubling of serum creatinine, end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or death (43.5% vs 47.1%, p = 0.02) in a pivotal, well designed trial (Reduction of Endpoints ...

Clinical Pharmacokinetics of Losartan

Clinical Pharmacokinetics, 2005
Losartan is the first orally available angiotensin-receptor antagonist without agonist properties. Following oral administration, losartan is rapidly absorbed, reaching maximum concentrations 1-2 hours post-administration. After oral administration approximately 14% of a losartan dose is converted to the pharmacologically active E 3174 metabolite.

Biologically Regulated Marrow Stimulation by Blocking TGF-β1 With Losartan Oral Administration Results in Hyaline-like Cartilage Repair: A Rabbit Osteochondral Defect Model

American Journal of Sports Medicine, 2020
Background: Microfracture or bone marrow stimulation (BMS) is often the first choice for clinical treatment of cartilage injuries; however, fibrocartilage, not pure hyaline cartilage, has been reported because of the development of fibrosis in the repair

Losartan in Cushing's syndrome

Methods and Findings in Experimental and Clinical Pharmacology, 1998
Eleven patients with Cushing's syndrome were included in the study. They maintained their usual sodium intake and received a single oral dose of 50 mg of the angiotensin II antagonist receptor losartan for 3 days. Losartan treatment resulted in stimulation of active renin and decrease of plasma and urinary kallikrein activity.
