Severe intoxication caused by sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor overdose: a case report.
CONCLUSIONS: Our case showed that an overdose of an SGLT2 inhibitor caused toxic effects on renal function, but severe hypoglycemia was not observed. Additional cases of intoxication from SGLT2 inhibitors alone would be helpful to clarify the mechanism of intoxication. PMID: 31918741 [PubMed - in process] (Source: BMC Pharmacology and Toxicology)

Method Validation for Simultaneous Quantification of Olmesartan and Hydrochlorothiazide in Human Plasma Using LC-MS/MS and Its Application Through Bioequivalence Study in Healthy Volunteers
A new, simple, sensitive, selective, rapid and high throughput liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method has been developed and validated for simultaneous quantification of Olmesartan and Hydrochlorothiazide in human plasma. Simple liquid–liquid extraction procedure was applied for plasma sample pretreatment using a mixture of diethyl ether and dichloromethane, as an extraction solution. Analytes were separated on Unisol C18 150*4.6 mm, 5 µm column using methanol and 2 mM ammonium acetate pH 5.5 (80:20, v/v) as a mobile phase and detected by electrospray ionization in the multiple reaction monitor...

Design and development of a self-microemulsifying drug delivery system of Olmesartan Medoxomil for enhanced bioavailability.
Authors: Komesli Y, Ozkaya AB, Ergur BU, Kirilmaz L, Karasulu E Abstract Olmesartan Medoxomil (OM) is a hydrophobic antihypertensive drug with low bioavailability (26%) and is known to have adverse effects such as celiac disease and enteropathy. The purpose of this study was to develop SMEDDS to increase bioavailability and decrease potential side effects of OM. Hydrophilic lipophilic balance was calculated by testing solubility of OM in different oils, surfactants and cosurfactants to obtain the most suitable combination of SMEDDS. Pseudoternary phase diagram was used to select the better oil/water formul...

Effect of block sequence of hyperbranched block copolymers on the aggregation behavior, drug solubilization and release property
Publication date: Available online 15 January 2019Source: Journal of Molecular LiquidsAuthor(s): Yutao Xue, Jie Sun, Shan Xiong, Huining Chai, Xia Xin, Guiying Xu, Teng LiuAbstractTwo hyperbranched block copolymers H904 and H90R4 which were the same in chemical composition but different in block sequence were synthesized by anionic polymerization. Commercially X shaped Tetronic block copolymers T904 and T90R4 were selected for comparison. The effect of block sequence on the aggregation behaviors of these four copolymers were studied by surface tension, transmission electron microscopy, steady-state fluorescence and dynamic...

Inhibition of Co-Crystallization of Olmesartan Medoxomil and Hydrochlorothiazide for Enhanced Dissolution Rate in Their Fixed Dose Combination.
This study investigated the possibility of this interaction during co-processing. The research was extended to inhibit deleterious interactions. The drugs were co-evaporated from ethanolic solution to maximize the chance of interaction. This was performed in the absence and presence of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) and/or aerosil. The products were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential thermal analysis, and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) in addition to dissolution studies. Co-evaporation of Olm with HCTZ in the absence of excipients produced crystalline material with FTIR ...

Characterization of the binding and conformational changes of bovine serum albumin upon interaction with antihypertensive olmesartan medoxomil
Publication date: Available online 1 November 2018Source: Journal of Molecular StructureAuthor(s): Atmanand M. Bagoji, Arunkumar T. Buddanavar, Naveen M. Gokavi, Sharanappa T. NandibewoorAbstractThe interaction of bovine serum albumin (BSA) with the olmesartan medoxomil (OLM) was investigated by different spectroscopic and linear sweep voltammetric techniques under experimentally optimised physiological conditions. The alteration of functional properties of BSA when quenched by OLM was illustrated by the continuous decrease of the fluorescence intensity of BSA upon addition of OLM. The quenching constants (Ksv) obtained we...
