Abstract: AIM: To study the pharmacokinetic profiles of ceptopril, a new ACE inhibitor, in Chinese healthy male and female volunteers. METHODS: 10 healthy volunteers (5 males and 5 females) were en- rolled and 30 mg ceptopril oral dose was given twice daily for 7 days. Another 10 healthy volunteers (5 males and 5 females) were treated with 60mg captopril in the fed and fasted conditions. With the analysis of HPLC for the concentrations of ceptopril in plasma, pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by Win-Nonlin software. RESULTS: No significant difference was observed between the pharmacokinetic parameters of the 1st dose and the last dose (P >0.05), with values as follows: t_max (1.2±0.5) h and (1.2±0.3)h, C_max (279±100) μg L and (299±101) μg L, AUC0-t (421±107) μg·L^-1 ·h and (461±152)μg·L^-1 ·h, t_1/2 (1.3±0.9) h and (1.3±0.5) h. Compared with those in fasted condition, t_max was prolonged, and AUC and C_max were not significantly changed in fed condition. There was no significant difference between the male and female volunteers. CONCLUSION: There was no accumulation when ceptopril was given with multiple doses. Food affected the absorption rate of ceptopril, but did not decrease its exposure. No sex difference was observed.
