The control product was a vehicle control without telmisartan. Cats enrolled in the study had a median age of 14 years (7-20 years), and weighed 1.93-11.4 kg. SEMINTRA was administered orally at 1.5 mg\u002Fkg twice daily for 14 days, then 2 mg\u002Fkg once daily until study end; the control was administered at a volume equivalent to SEMINTRA. One hundred fourteen (59.4%) SEMINTRA group cats and 42 (43.8%) control group cats had at least one adverse reaction. Adverse reactions that occurred in at least 5% of either treatment group are presented in Table 1 below.\nTable 1 Adverse Reactions in the 28-Day Field Study\nClinical Sign\nSEMINTRA\nN=192\nControl\nN=96\nVomiting\n46 (24.0%)\n14 (14.6%)\nDiarrhea\n18 (9.4%)\n4 (4.2%)\nLethargy\n13 (6.8%)\n3 (3.1%)\nWeight loss\n13 (6.8%)\n5 (5.2%)\nDecreased appetite\u002Finappetence\n13 (6.8%)\n7 (7.3%)\nNon-regenerative anemia\n11 (5.7%)\n2 (2.1%)\nDehydration\n10 (5.2%)\n4 (4.2%)\nRetinal lesions (target organ damage)\n4 (2.1%)\n6 (6.3%)\nAdditional adverse reactions that occurred in \u003C5% of the SEMINTRA group included (in order of decreasing frequency): anorexia, gagging, arrhythmia, cough, heart murmur, and regenerative anemia. Additional adverse reactions representing 2-5% of the control group included azotemia, not drinking and renal failure.\nSeven cats (five SEMINTRA and two control) either died or were euthanized during the study. None of the SEMINTRA group deaths were considered related to treatment.\n5-month Field Effectiveness and Safety Study\nThe long-term safety of SEMINTRA was evaluated in an open label, 5 month field effectiveness and safety study in 107 cats that received at least one dose of SEMINTRA. Cats enrolled in the study had a mean age of 14.1 years (7-20 years) and weighed 1.92-11.4 kg. SEMINTRA was administered orally at 2 mg\u002Fkg once daily. Ninety-four cats (87.9%) had at least one adverse reaction during the study.

Three cats had progressive chronic kidney disease that may have been affected by telmisartan treatment, concurrent disease, or inadequate control of hypertension. The other six cats died of causes unrelated to treatment (e.g. neoplasia).\nTo report suspected adverse drug events, for technical assistance, or to obtain a copy of the Safety Data Sheet (SDS), contact Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health USA Inc. at 1-888-637-4251.

Telmisartan is metabolized to the 1-O-acylglucuronide of telmisartan, which, in cats treated for 6 days at 1 mg\u002Fkg, was shown to be present in the plasma at levels approximately 21% of that of unchanged parent compound.\nFollowing an oral dose of 1 mg\u002Fkg telmisartan once daily for five days, the time to reach mean peak plasma concentration (Tmax) was 21 minutes and 32 minutes for fasted and fed cats, respectively. There was a higher systemic exposure to telmisartan in the fasted cats based on the maximum concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration vs time curve (AUC). The mean terminal elimination half-life was approximately 8 hours. The mean systemic exposure of telmisartan (Cmax and AUC) was approximately 60% lower for female cats compared to male cats. However, dose adjustment for female cats is not necessary. An increase in dose from 1 to 5 mg\u002Fkg once daily resulted in a greater than proportional increase in telmisartan exposure. There could be low to moderate accumulation of drug upon repeated once daily or twice daily administrations of 1.5-2 mg\u002Fkg.",[72],{"id":73,"documentId":74,"slug":75,"name":76},805,"o7qckvsm1rqc4syge2dngqs0","angiotensin-2-receptor-antagonists","Angiotensin 2 Receptor Antagonists",[],[79],{"id":80,"documentId":81,"slug":82,"title":83},232,"dh3w84k53g6hd6q8aff1ybxy","systemic-hypertension","Systemic hypertension",[]]
