WHAT SABERVEL IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Sabervel belongs to a group of medicines known as angiotensin-II
receptor antagonists. Angiotensin-II
is a substance produced in the body which binds to receptors in blood
vessels causing them to tighten.
This results in an increase in blood pressure. Sabervel prevents the
binding of angiotensin-II to these
receptors, causing the blood vessels to relax and the blood pressure
to lower. Sabervel slows the
decrease of kidney function in patients with high blood pressure and
type 2 diabetes.
Sabervel is used in adult patients
•
to treat high blood pressure
_(essential hypertension) _
•
to protect the kidney in patients with high blood pressure, type 2
diabetes and laboratory
evidence of impaired kidney function.

CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Sabervel is indicated in adults for the treatment of essential
hypertension.
It is also indicated for the treatment of renal disease in adult
patients with hypertension and type 2
diabetes mellitus as part of an antihypertensive medicinal product
regimen (see sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5
and 5.1).
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
The usual recommended initial and maintenance dose is 150 mg once
daily, with or without food.
Sabervel at a dose of 150 mg once daily generally provides a better 24
hour blood pressure control
than 75 mg. However, initiation
of therapy with 75 mg could be considered, particularly in
haemodialysed patients and in the elderly over 75 years.
In patients insufficiently controlled with 150 mg once daily, the dose
of Sabervel can be increased to
300 mg, or other antihypertensive agents can be added (see sections
4.3, 4.4,
_ _
4.5
_ _
and 5.1). In
particular, the addition of a diuretic such as hydrochlorothiazide has
been shown to have an additive
effect with Sabervel (see section
_ _
4.5).
In hypertensive type 2 diabetic patients, therapy should be initiated
at 150 mg irbesartan once daily
and titrated up to 300 mg once daily as the preferred maintenance dose
for treatment of renal disease.
The demonstration of renal benefit of Sabervel in hypertensive type 2
diabetic patients is based on
studies where irbesartan was used in addition to other
antihypertensive agents, as needed, to reach
target blood pressure (see sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.5 and
_ _
5.1).
