【功效主治】 　用于治疗原发性高血压。本品可单独使用，也可与其它抗高血压药物联用。

【化学成分】 【药理作用】 　坎地沙坦酯在体内迅速被水解成活性代谢物坎地沙坦，坎地沙坦为选择性血管紧张素Ⅱ受体(AT1)拮抗剂，通过与血管平滑肌AT1受体结合而拮抗血管紧张素Ⅱ的血管收缩作用，从而降低末梢血管阻力。另有认为：坎地沙坦可通过抑制肾上腺分泌醛固酮而发挥一定的降压作用。坎地沙坦不抑制激肽酶Ⅱ，不影响缓激肽降解。在高血压患者进行的实验显示：患者多次服用本品可致血浆肾素活性、血管紧张素1浓度及血管紧张素Ⅱ浓度升高;本品2-8mg每日1次连续服用，可使收缩压、舒张压下降，左室心肌重量、末梢血管阻力减少，而对心排出量、射血分数、肾血管阻力、肾血流量、肾小球滤过率无明显影响;对有脑血管障碍的原发生性高血压患者，对脑血流量无影响。

【药物相互作用】 　本品与优降糖、尼莫地平、地高辛、华法令、氢氯噻嗪等药品均无明显相互作用，在健康受试者口服避孕药情形下，亦无明显相互作用。由于本品不通过P450肝药酶体系代谢，并对P450代谢无影响,因此，本品与其它能被P450代谢的或影响P450代谢功能的药物间无相互作用。

【不良反应】 　(1) 血管性水肿：有时出现面部、口唇、舌、咽、喉头等水肿症状的血管形水肿，应进行仔细的观察，见到异常时，停止用药，并进行适当处理。

(2) 晕厥和失去意识：过度的降压可能引起晕厥和暂时性失去意识。在这种情况下，应停止服药，并进行适当处理。特别是正进行血液透析的患者、严格进行限盐疗法的患者、最近开始服用利尿降压药的患者，可能会出现血压的迅速降低。因此，这些患者使用本药治疗应从较低的剂量开始服用。如有必要增加剂量，应密切观察患者情况，缓慢进行。

(3) 急性肾功能衰竭：可能会出现急性肾功能衰竭，应密切观察患者情况，如发现异常，应停止服药，并进行适当处理。

(4) 高血钾患者：鉴于可能会出现高血钾，应密切观察患者情况。如发现异常，应停止服药，并进行适当处理。

(5) 肝功能恶化或黄疸：鉴于可能会出现AST(GOT)、ACT(GPTO，γ-GTP)等值升高的肝功能障碍或黄疸，应密切观察患者情况。如发现异常，应停止服药，病进行适当处理。

(6) 粒细胞缺乏症：可能会出现粒细胞缺乏症，应密切观察患者情况。如发现异常，应停止服药，并进行适当处理。

(7) 横纹肌溶解：可能会出现如表现为肌痛、虚弱、CK增加、血中和尿中的肌球蛋白。如出现上述情况，应停止服药，病进行适当处理。

(8)间质性肺炎： 可能会出现伴有发热、咳嗽、呼吸困难、胸部X—线检查异常等表现的间质性肺炎。如出现上述情况，应停止服药，并进行适当处理，如用肾上腺皮质激素治疗。

【禁忌症】 　1 对本制剂的成分有过敏史的患者。

2 妊娠或可能妊娠的妇女(参照【孕妇及哺乳期妇女用药】项)。

3 严重的肝、肾功能不全或胆汁淤滞患者

产品用途
