Conditions:
Olmesartan medoxomil, a prodrug, is hydrolyzed to olmesartan during absorption from the gastrointestinal tract. Olmesartan is a selective AT1 subtype angiotensin II receptor antagonist. Olmesartan blocks the vasoconstrictor effects of angiotensin II by selectively blocking the binding of angiotensin II to the AT1 receptor in vascular smooth muscle. Oral olmesartan medoxomil 10-40 mg once daily is recommended for the treatment of adult patients with hypertension, this dosage has consistently helped achieve a double-digit reduction both in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, a reduction which is maintained for one year. Extensive clinical evidence from several large well designed trials and the clinical practice setting has confirmed the antihypertensive efficacy and good tolerability profile of oral olmesartan medoxomil, as monotherapy in patients with hypertension. Olmesartan medoxomil has shown no clinically important pharmacokinetic interactions with digoxin, warfarin or antacid (aluminium magnesium hydroxide). Adverse events were infrequent in clinical studies of olmesartan medoxomil and were similar to those attributed to placebo.

Conditions:
Faropenem is a unique antimicrobial penem being developed for oral administration. It markets it in two forms: faropenem sodium and faropenem medoxomil. The high binding affinities of faropenem to penicillin-binding proteins from gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria are mirrored by its pronounced and concentration-dependent bactericidal effect. It is usually used to treat a wide range of infections such as skin, respiratory and otorhinologic infections. The most commonly reported adverse reactions include diarrhea, abdominal pain, loose stool, rash and nausea. The FDA refused to approve faropenem – the applicant have to conduct new studies and clinical trials to prove the drug treats community-acquired pneumonia, bacterial sinusitis, chronic bronchitis, and skin infections.
