Guest guest Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 The following 3 ARBs are not metabolized the same way, therefore their interactions with other substances will be different. The following litrature states that there are no interactions with warfarin. Olmesartan (Benicar) is not metabolized thru the livers P450 enzyme pathways, so it's not suspected of reacting with any drugs that are. It should be noted that Olmesartan has only been on the market for about 2 years - so it's a new drug.... so it's a relative newdrug. losartan (Cozaar) http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/irbesart_ad.htm Ibersartan (Avapro) http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/irbesart_ad.htm Olmesartan (Benicar) http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/benicar_ad.htm http://www.uspharmacist.com/index.asp? page=ce/newdrugs_nat_1002/default.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
