Angiotensin II activates AR1 leading to vasoconstriction and increased noradrenaline release which further increases vasoconstriction via action at α1-adrenergic receptors. It also stimulates secretion of aldosterone which acts to increase sodium and water reabsorption in the renal tubules. Fimasartan bind to and antagonizes AR1 preventing vasoconstriction and reducing aldosterone secretion to increase natriuresis leading to a reduction in blood volume. Together these effects produce an anti-hypertensive effect.
Tmax is 0.5-1.3 h.
Most is eliminated unchangd in bile with less than 3% in the urine.
