1. WHAT APROVEL IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Aprovel
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. Aprovel prevents the binding of
angiotensin-II to these receptors, causing the blood vessels
to relax and the blood pressure to lower. Aprovel slows the
decrease of kidney function in patients with high blood
pressure and type 2 diabetes.
Aprovel is used in adults 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.

4. Clinical particulars
4.1 Therapeutic indications
Aprovel 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.
Aprovel 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 Aprovel 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 Aprovel
(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 Aprovel in hypertensive type 2
diabetic patients is based on studies
where irbesartan was used in addition to other antihypertensive
agents, as neede
