IVABRADINE
Mechanism of Action

 Blocks the hyperpolarization-activated cyclic


nucleotide-gated (HCN) channel responsible for the
cardiac pacemaker I(f) ‘funny’ current, which
regulates heart rate

 the cardiac effects most pronounced in the sinoatrial


(SA) node

 No effect on ventricular repolarization and no effects


on myocardial contractility

AnginaPactoris
Angina Pectoris

Unique pharmacological properties

 Negative chronotropic effect

 No impact on the inotropism and dromotropism of the hea

 No coronary constriction

 Increases stroke volume

 Preserves cardiac output


Clinical Uses
 heart failure with reduced ejection
fraction

 Ivabradine is a second-line drug for


systolic heart failure and chronic
stable angina (after BB or when BB
are contraindicated)
 for the treatment of inappropriate
sinus tachycardia
Pharmacokinetics
 Food delays absorption by ~1 hr and
increases plasma exposure by 20-40% so
should be taken with meals

 Protein bound: 70%

 Extensively metabolized in the liver by


CYP3A4-mediated oxidation

 Major metabolite: N-desmethylated


derivative (S 18982), which is equipotent to
ivabradine
Elimination

 Distribution half-life: 2 hr
 Effective half-life: ~6 hr
 Excretion: 4% unchanged in urine;
excretion of metabolites occurs to a
similar extent via feces and urine
The MOST tested antianginal
agent

Drug Interactions overview

 Coadministration of verapamil or

exposure and should be avoided

 Concomitant use with negative


chronotropes (eg, digoxin, amiodarone,
beta-blockers) may increase the risk of
bradycardia
