Mode Of Action

Competitive antagonist of endothelin-1; blocks endothelin receptors on vascular endothelium and smooth muscle resulting in inhibition of vasoconstriction

Indication

  • Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH)

Precaution

Hepatotoxicity and teratogenicity. Elevations of AST or ALT associated with Bosentan are dose-dependent, occur both early and late in treatment, usually progress slowly, are typically asymptomatic, and usually have been reversible after treatment interruption or cessation. Aminotransferase elevations also may reverse spontaneously while continuing treatment with Tracleer. Liver aminotransferase levels must be measured prior to initiation of treatment and then monthly and therapy adjusted accordingly .Discontinue Bosentan if liver aminotransferase elevations are accompanied by clinical symptoms of hepatotoxicity (such as nausea, vomiting, fever, abdominal pain, jaundice, or unusual lethargy or fatigue) or increases in bilirubin > 2 Lactation: Not known if excreted in breast milk; not recommended

Physicians should consider whether these benefits are sufficient to offset the risk of hepatotoxicity in WHO Class II patients, which may preclude future use as their disease progresses.

Pregnancy and lactation

Pregnancy category: X

Studies in animals or humans have demonstrated fetal abnormalities and/or there is positive evidence of human fetal risk based on adverse reaction data from investigational or marketing experience, and the risks involved in use of the drug in pregnant women clearly outweigh potential benefits.

Interaction

Increased bosentan levels w/ CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g. ketoconazole, ritonavir, diltiazem), CYP2C9 inhibitors (e.g. amiodarone, fluconazole), tacrolimus. Rifampicin initially increases but subsequently decreases bosentan concentration. May decrease plasma levels of warfarin, statins (e.g. simvastatin, lovastatin), hormonal contraceptives, sildenafil, tadalafil. Potentially Fatal: Increased risk of hepatotoxicity may occur w/ glibenclamide. Ciclosporin markedly increases bosentan concentration.
