All sartans except eprosartan have at least some affinity for CYP2C9, but only losartan has an affinity for CYP2C19. Losartan and irbesartan have modest affinity for CYP1A2 and CYP3A4. This would suggest that the theoretical potential for drug interactions is likely to be quite low, with the possible exceptions of losartan and irbesartan for CYP2C9. Based on these findings, further studies on the interaction potential of losartan and irbesartan are warranted.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
