Pharmacologic Category
  • Antihypertensive;
  • Calcium Channel Blocker;
  • Calcium Channel Blocker, Dihydropyridine
Dosing: Adult
Hypertension, chronic

Hypertension, chronic:

Note: For patients who warrant combination therapy (BP >20/10 mm Hg above goal or suboptimal response to monotherapy), may use with another appropriate agent (eg, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, angiotensin II receptor blocker, or thiazide diuretic) (Ref).

Oral: Initial: 2.5 mg twice daily; evaluate response after ~2 to 4 weeks and titrate dose as needed up to 5 mg twice daily; if additional BP control is needed, consider combination therapy (Ref). Note: Most patients show no additional response with doses >10 mg/day and adverse reactions occur more frequently.

Dosing: Kidney Impairment: Adult

There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling; however, bioavailability is increased with mild renal impairment and decreased with severe renal impairment. Isradipine is not removed by hemodialysis; therefore, supplemental doses after hemodialysis are not necessary (Ref).

Dosing: Liver Impairment: Adult

There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling; however, peak serum concentrations are increased by 32% and AUC is increased by 52%.

Dosing: Older Adult

Refer to adult dosing.

Dosing: Pediatric

(For additional information see "Isradipine: Pediatric drug information")

Hypertension

Hypertension: Limited data available: Infants, Children, and Adolescents: Immediate release: Oral: Initial: 0.05 to 0.1 mg/kg/dose 2 to 3 times daily; titrate upwards at 2- to 4-week intervals; maximum daily dose: 0.6 mg/kg/day not to exceed 10 mg/day (Ref). Based on retrospective observations, initial doses of 0.05 to 0.15 mg/kg/dose administered 3 to 4 times daily have been suggested in patients with secondary hypertension and acute severe hypertension; usual daily dose: 0.3 to 0.4 mg/kg/day in divided doses (eg, every 8 hours); reported range: 0.04 to 1.2 mg/kg/day (Ref). Note: Most adult patients show no improvement with doses >10 mg daily, and adverse reaction rate increases (Ref).

Dosing: Kidney Impairment: Pediatric

There are no dosage adjustments provided in manufacturer's labeling; however, bioavailability is increased with mild renal impairment; trend is reversed with further renal function deterioration. Other sources recommend that no initial dosage adjustment is required in pediatric and adult patients (Ref). Isradipine is not removed by hemodialysis; therefore, supplemental doses after hemodialysis are not necessary (Ref).

Dosing: Liver Impairment: Pediatric

There are no dosage adjustments provided in manufacturer's labeling; however, adult pharmacokinetic data has shown peak serum concentrations are increased by 32% and bioavailability is increased by 52%; use with caution.

Warnings/Precautions

Concerns related to adverse effects:

• Angina/MI: Increased angina and/or MI has occurred with initiation or dosage titration of dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers. Reflex tachycardia may occur resulting in angina and/or MI in patients with obstructive coronary disease, especially in the absence of concurrent beta-blockade.

• Hypotension/syncope: Symptomatic hypotension with or without syncope can rarely occur; blood pressure must be lowered at a rate appropriate for the patient's clinical condition.

• Peripheral edema: A common side effect is peripheral edema (dose-dependent); may begin within 2 to 3 weeks of starting therapy.

Disease-related concerns:

• Aortic stenosis: Use with extreme caution in patients with severe aortic stenosis; may reduce coronary perfusion resulting in ischemia.

• Heart failure (HF): The AHA/ACC/HFSA heart failure guidelines recommend to avoid use in patients with heart failure due to lack of benefit and/or worse outcomes with calcium channel blockers in general (AHA/ACC/HFSA [Heidenreich 2022]).

• Hepatic impairment: Use with caution in patients with hepatic impairment; may require lower starting dose.

• Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) with outflow tract obstruction: Use with caution in patients with HCM and outflow tract obstruction since reduction in afterload may worsen symptoms associated with this condition.

Reproductive Considerations

Medications considered acceptable for the treatment of chronic hypertension during pregnancy may generally be continued in patients trying to conceive. Isradipine is generally not considered a preferred agent for use during pregnancy (ACC/AHA [Whelton 2018]; ACOG 2019; NICE 2019); however, use may be considered (ESC [Cífková 2020]).

Pregnancy Considerations

Isradipine crosses the human placenta. In a study of 16 women, umbilical cord concentrations were variable but less than maternal serum (Lunell 1993).

Chronic maternal hypertension is associated with adverse events in the fetus/infant. Chronic maternal hypertension may increase the risk of birth defects, low birth weight, premature delivery, stillbirth, and neonatal death. Actual fetal/neonatal risks may be related to the duration and severity of maternal hypertension. Untreated chronic hypertension may also increase the risks of adverse maternal outcomes, including gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, delivery complications, stroke, and myocardial infarction (ACOG 2019).

Due to pregnancy-induced physiologic changes, some pharmacokinetic properties of oral isradipine may be altered (Christensen 1994).

Patients with preexisting hypertension may continue their medication during pregnancy unless contraindications exist (ESC [Regitz-Zagrosek 2018]). When treatment of hypertension is initiated during pregnancy, agents other than isradipine may be preferred (ACOG 2019; ESC [Regitz-Zagrosek 2018]; SOGC [Magee 2022]); however, use of isradipine may be considered (ESC [Cífková 2020]).

Breastfeeding Considerations

It is not known if isradipine is present in breast milk.

Due to the potential for serious adverse reactions in the breastfeeding infant, the manufacturer recommends a decision be made whether to discontinue breastfeeding or to discontinue the drug, considering the importance of treatment to the mother. Use of a calcium channel blocker other than isradipine may be preferred in lactating patients (ESC [Cífková 2020]).

Monitoring Parameters

Blood pressure; heart rate.

Mechanism of Action

Inhibits calcium ion from entering the “slow channels” or select voltage-sensitive areas of vascular smooth muscle and myocardium during depolarization, producing relaxation of vascular smooth muscle, resulting in coronary vasodilation and reduced blood pressure; increases myocardial oxygen delivery in patients with vasospastic angina

Pharmacokinetics (Adult Data Unless Noted)

Onset of action: 2 to 3 hours; Note: Full hypotensive effect may not occur for 2 to 4 weeks

Duration: >12 hours

Absorption: 90% to 95%, but large first-pass effect

Distribution: Vd: 3 L/kg

Protein binding: 95%

Metabolism: Extensive first-pass effect; hepatically metabolized via cytochrome P450 isoenzyme CYP3A4; major metabolic pathways include oxidation and ester cleavage; six inactive metabolites have been identified

Bioavailability: 15% to 24%

Mild renal impairment (CrCl 30 to 80 mL/minute): Increased by 45%; as renal function continues to decline, this increase in AUC is reversed to a reduction in AUC as seen with severe renal impairment.

Severe renal impairment (CrCl <10 mL/minute); concurrent hemodialysis: Decreased by 20% to 50%

Hepatic impairment: Increased by 52%

Half-life elimination: Alpha half-life: 1.5 to 2 hours; Terminal half-life: 8 hours

Time to peak, serum: 1 to 1.5 hours

Excretion: Urine (60% to 65% as metabolites); feces (25% to 30%)

Pharmacokinetics: Additional Considerations (Adult Data Unless Noted)

Hepatic function impairment: The Cmax increases by 32%

Older adult: The AUC and Cmax increases.
