Olmesartan Medoxomil

Olmesartan medoxomil is an orally bioavailable prodrug form of olmesartan (Cay-23412), a nonpeptide angiotensin II antagonist that is selective for the angiotensin 1 (AT1) receptor over the AT2 receptor. Olmesartan medoxomil (0.1 mg/kg) inhibits the angiotensin II pressor response in normotensive rats. It reduces both systolic and diastolic blood pressure in fructose-fed rats, a model of insulin resistance, when administered at a dose of 10 mg/kg per day, as well as in chow-fed control animals when administered at a dose of 11.4 mg/kg per day. Olmesartan medoxomil also inhibits increases in plasma levels of triglycerides and non-esterified fatty acids in fructose-fed rats. Formulations containing olmesartan medoxomil have been used in the treatment of hypertension.Formal Name: 4-(1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-2-propyl-1-[[2'-(2H-tetrazol-5-yl)[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl]methyl]-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylic acid, (5-methyl-2-oxo-1,3-dioxol-4-yl)methyl ester.
