Canrenone is a diuretic metabolite of spironolactone, the prototypic aldosterone antagonist diuretic. In vivo, spironolactone is metabolized to canrenone, which prolongs the biological effectiveness of spironolactone. Another drug, potassium canrenoate, can also form canrenone as an active metabolite. Canrenone is not currently available for Sadde et al. studied pharmacokinetics of spironolactone, canrenone, and potassium canrenoate in humans. The authors either used an oral dose of 400 mg of spironolactone or an intravenous dose of 380 mg of potassium canrenoate. Although initial plasma concentration of potassium canrenoate was high, the value rapidly dropped to 1,000 ng/ml after To further explore potential regional disparities in medication use, 3 we measured concentrations of canrenone (an active metabolite of spironolactone 4,5) in 366 patients in the TOPCAT trial (206 A linear relationship between a single dose of spironolactone and plasma levels of canrenone occurs within 96 hours when administered in a dose range of 25 to 200 mg. The half-life is approximately 19.2 hours for canrenone; for spironolactone it is 12.5 hours. 21. Clinical Use. Box 34.3 lists indications for spironolactone. Off-Label Uses Canrenone may exert some of its positive effects following the theory that spironolactone may provide protection against SARS-CoV-2-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome through different mechanisms: (i) By increasing the plasma levels of circulating ACE2, thereby limiting its attachment to cellular ACE2, (ii) by downregulating the The ESCAPE‐IT trial confirmed that canrenone has a beneficial effect on blood pressure control, in line with what already reported in the literature by Fogari et al.,18 and which is similar to that reported with spironolactone.19, 20 As expected, canrenone 100 mg was more effective than canrenone 50 mg in decreasing blood pressure.
