CARLOVELL TABLET 25 MG CARVEDILOL 25 MG PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Film coated tablet, round, convex, break line on one side, white, odorless and tasteless. COMPOSITION Each film coated tablet contains 25 mg of Carvedilol PHARMACODYNAMICS Carvedilol is a multiple action adrenergic receptor blocker with α1, β1 and β2 adrenergic receptor blockade properties. Carvedilol has been shown to have organ-protective effects. Carvedilol is a potent antioxidant and a scavenger of reactive oxygen radicals. Carvedilol is racemic, and both R(+) and S(-) enantiomers have the same α-adrenergic receptor blocking properties and antioxidant properties. Carvedilol has antiproliferative effects on human vascular smooth muscle cells. A decrease in oxidative stress has been shown in clinical studies by measuring various markers during chronic treatment of patients with carvedilol. Carvedilol’s β-adrenergic receptor blocking properties are non-selective for the β1 and β2-adrenoceptors and are associated with the levorotatory S(-) enantiomer. Carvedilol has no intrinsic sympathomimetic activity and (like propranolol) it has membrane stabilising properties. Carvedilol suppresses the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system through β- blockade, which reduces the release of renin, thus making fluid retention rare. Carvedilol reduces the peripheral vascular resistance via selective blockade of α1-adrenoceptors. Carvedilol attenuates the increase in blood pressure induced by phenylephrine, an α1- adrenoceptor agonist, but not that induced by angiotensin II. Carvedilol has no adverse effect on the lipid profile. A normal ratio of high-density lipoproteins to low density lipoproteins (HDL/LDL) is maintained. PHARMACOKINETICS _Absorption _ Following oral administration, carvedilol is rapidly absorbed. Carvedilol is a substrate of the intestinal efflux transporter P-glycoprotein which plays a major role in the bioavailability of certain drugs. In healthy volunteers the maximum serum concentration is reached after approximately one hour. The absol 阅读完整的文件
