Pharmacodynamics
Telmisartan is a specific angiotensin II receptor antagonist (ARA) type AT1, effective by oral administration. It has high affinity for the AT1 subtype of angiotensin II receptors, through which angiotensin II action is realized. It displaces angiotensin II from binding to the receptor, having no agonist effect against this receptor. Telmisartan binds only to the AT1 subtype of angiotensin II receptor.
The binding is long lasting. It has no affinity for other receptors, including AT2 receptor and other less studied angiotensin receptors. The functional significance of these receptors and the effect of their possible overstimulation by angiotensin II, the concentration of which increases with telmisartan administration, have not been studied. It reduces the blood concentration of aldosterone, does not inhibit plasma renin and does not block ion channels. Telmisartan does not inhibit angiotensin-converting enzyme (kininase II), which also degrades bradykinin. Therefore, an increase in bradykinin-induced side effects is not expected.
In patients with arterial hypertension, telmisartan at a dose of 80 mg completely blocks the hypertensive effects of angiotensin II. Initiation of antihypertensive action is observed within 3 hours after the first oral administration of telmisartan. The action of the drug persists for 24 hours and remains significant up to 48 hours. A pronounced antihypertensive effect usually develops after 4 weeks of regular use.
