'"`UNIQ--vote-00000053-QINU`"' Also raises bradykinin, contributing to vasodilation and the characteristic dry cough. Renally cleared, unmetabolized; dose-adjust by eGFR'"`UNIQ--ref-00000054-QINU`"'. (1) ·
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000237-QINU`"' Binds the same insulin receptor as endogenous insulin with comparable mitogenic-to-metabolic ratio; provides basal hepatic glucose suppression and peripheral glucose uptake without prandial peaks'"`UNIQ--ref-00000238-QINU`"'. (1) ·
'"`UNIQ--vote-000003D1-QINU`"' SLCO1B1 polymorphism affects exposure but is most clinically actionable for simvastatin'"`UNIQ--ref-000003D2-QINU`"'. (1) ·
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000A1D-QINU`"' Like other ACE inhibitors, it raises bradykinin (driving the dry cough and rare angioedema). Renally cleared; dose-adjust in renal impairment'"`UNIQ--ref-00000A1E-QINU`"'. (1) ·
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000AEA-QINU`"' The 24-hour half-life supports once-daily dosing with consistent overnight BP control. Largely hepatically cleared (~98% biliary); no significant renal clearance dependence'"`UNIQ--ref-00000AEB-QINU`"'. (1) ·
'"`UNIQ--vote-0000104D-QINU`"' Adequate hydration is at least as important as the drug in producing the expectorant effect clinically. Used in combination with dextromethorphan, decongestants, or antihistamines in many proprietary OTC cold preparations. (1) ·
'"`UNIQ--vote-00001356-QINU`"' Binds the same insulin receptor as endogenous insulin with comparable mitogenic-to-metabolic ratio'"`UNIQ--ref-00001357-QINU`"'. (1)
