Brief summary
The impact of sodium intake on plasma drug concentrations has previously been reported in the literature for verapamil and quinidine but, to the investigators' knowledge, never with renin-angiotensin system blockers such as AT1R antagonists and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors.
Detailed description
The impact of sodium intake on plasma drug concentrations concentrations obtained after a single oral dose of RAS blocking drugs (ramipril 10 mg, valsartan 160 mg, candesartan 8 mg) or a blocker as control (ATENOLOL 50 mg) will be compared in healthy normotensive men randomly assigned to a 6-day replated-sodium diet or a sodium depletion.
Interventions
high sodium diet
low sodium diet
ramipril 10 mg
valsartan 160 mg
candesartan 8 mg
atenolol 50 mg
