avapro and Cirrhosis, Liver

avapro has been researched along with Cirrhosis, Liver in 7 studies

Irbesartan: A spiro compound, biphenyl and tetrazole derivative that acts as an angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonist. It is used in the management of HYPERTENSION, and in the treatment of kidney disease.
irbesartan : A biphenylyltetrazole that is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist used mainly for the treatment of hypertension.

" Additionally, they randomly received either placebo (N = 15) or irbesartan (step-up dosage titration up to 300 mg/d, N = 17)."2.73Irbesartan plus low-dose propranolol versus low-dose propranolol alone in cirrhosis: a placebo-controlled, double-blind study. ( Flacke, S; Ghauri, M; Heller, J; Herold, T; Sauerbruch, T; Schepke, M; Stoffel-Wagner, B; Wiest, R, 2008)
"The effect of hepatic impairment on the clinical pharmacology of the angiotensin II (AII) receptor antagonist irbesartan was assessed by comparing pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters in 10 patients with hepatic cirrhosis with a matched group of 10 healthy volunteers."2.69Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of irbesartan in patients with hepatic cirrhosis. ( Ford, NF; Langenbacher, KM; Lasseter, KC; Marino, MR; Raymond, RH, 1998)
