  • MetabollsmIt is rapidly and completely hydrolysed to fosinoprilat, a p-hydroxy metabolite and a glucuronide conjugate of fosinoprilat. Metabolism occurs by esterases in gastro-intestinal mucosa and in the liver.
  • Half life11.5 h in healthy volunteers; 14 h in patients with renal impairment.
  • ExcretionThe metabolites are excreted in urine and faeces via bile. During 96 h post-intravenous administration, 90% of a dose is recovered, 44% in urine and 46% in faeces. For oral administration, however, 13 to 16% is recovered in urine and 73 to 78% in faeces. The drug has also been detected in breast milk.
  • Urinary ExcretionN/A
  • CleranceFosinopril, body clearance, 1.55 to 2.35 L/h; fosinoprilat, 26 to 39 mL/min.
