Abstract excerpt
Irbesartan, a potent and selective angiotensin II type-1 (AT1) receptor blocker (ARB), is one of the representative medications for the treatment of hypertension. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C9 is primarily involved in the oxidation of irbesartan. CYP2C9 is highly polymorphic, and genetic polymorphism of this enzyme is the leading cause of significant alterations in the pharmacokinetics of irbesartan. This study aimed...
