Fenoldopam is a rapid-acting vasodilator. It is an agonist for D₁-like dopamine receptors and binds with moderate affinity to α₂-adrenoceptors. It has no significant affinity for D₂-like receptors, α₁ and β-adrenoceptors, 5_HT1 and 5_HT2 receptors, or muscarinic receptors. Fenoldopam is a racemic mixture with the R-isomer responsible for the biological activity. The R-isomer has approximately 250-fold higher affinity for D₁-like receptors than does the S-isomer. In non-clinical studies, fenoldopam had no agonist effect on presynaptic D₂-like dopamine receptors, or α or β -adrenoceptors, nor did it affect angiotensin-converting enzyme activity. Fenoldopam may increase norepinephrine plasma concentration.

FENOLDOPAM

Mechanisms of Action [MoA] - Dopamine Agonists

Established Pharmacologic Class [EPC] - Dopaminergic Agonist

Fenoldopam is a Dopaminergic Agonist. The mechanism of action of fenoldopam is as a Dopamine Agonist.

Drugs used in the treatment of acute or chronic vascular HYPERTENSION regardless of pharmacological mechanism. Among the antihypertensive agents are DIURETICS; (especially DIURETICS, THIAZIDE); ADRENERGIC BETA-ANTAGONISTS; ADRENERGIC ALPHA-ANTAGONISTS; ANGIOTENSIN-CONVERTING ENZYME INHIBITORS; CALCIUM CHANNEL BLOCKERS; GANGLIONIC BLOCKERS; and VASODILATOR AGENTS.

Drugs used to cause dilation of the blood vessels.

Drugs that bind to and activate dopamine receptors.

Radiolabeled studies show that about 90% of infused fenoldopam is eliminated in urine, 10% in feces. Elimination is largely by conjugation, without participation of cytochrome P-450 enzymes. Only 4% of the administered dose is excreted unchanged.
