Influence of food on the pharmacokinetics of quinapril and its active diacid metabolite, CI-928.

A randomized two-way crossover study was conducted in 12 healthy volunteers to assess the effect of food on the pharmacokinetics of quinapril (CI-906) and its active metabolite, CI-928, after quinapril dosing. Forty-milligram oral quinapril doses were administered in a fasted or a fed state with a one-week washout period between treatments. No significant treatment differences were observed in quinapril and CI-928 values for maximum plasma concentration, area under the plasma concentration-time curve, or percentage of dose excreted in the urine. Small but significant increases of less than 0.5 hour in quinapril and CI-928 tmax values were observed after consumption of food. The pharmacokinetic profiles of quinapril and CI-928 were not significantly altered by the administration of food.
