How it works

This product’s leaflet is published as a scanned document. This section quotes the US prescribing label for the same active substance (eplerenone). It describes the substance, not this Bulgarian product — its uses and doses can differ.

Eplerenone binds to the mineralocorticoid receptor and blocks the binding of aldosterone, a component of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system (RAAS).

Aldosterone synthesis, which occurs primarily in the adrenal gland, is modulated by multiple factors, including angiotensin II and non-RAAS mediators such as adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and potassium.

The shape is a standard model drawn from the two times above, not a measurement. How fast a medicine acts and wears off also depends on the dose, the form and the person.
How the body breaks it down

Metabolism and Excretion Eplerenone metabolism is primarily mediated via CYP3A4.

How it leaves the body

Following a single oral dose of radiolabeled drug, approximately 32% of the dose was excreted in the feces and approximately 67% was excreted in the urine.

With food

Absorption is not affected by food.
