DA1 receptor ( EC50 = 55.5 nM )

Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Radiolabeled studies show that about 90% of infused fenoldopam is eliminated in urine, 10% in feces. Elimination is largely by conjugation, without participation of cytochrome P-450 enzymes. Only 4% of the administered dose is excreted unchanged.

---

Metabolism / Metabolites
Elimination is largely by conjugation, without participation of cytochrome P-450 enzymes. Methylation, glucuronidation, and sulfation are the main routes of conjugation.

---

Biological Half-Life
The elimination half-life is about 5 minutes in mild to moderate hypertensives, with little difference between the R (active) and S isomers.

Effects During Pregnancy and Lactation
◉ Summary of Use during Lactation
No information is available on the use of fenoldopam during breastfeeding. The manufacturer recommends avoiding breastfeeding during fenoldopam use; however, because of its poor oral bioavailability and short half-life, any fenoldopam in milk is unlikely to adversely affect the breastfed infant. Also, fenoldopam can be given intravenously to infants. Unlike dopamine, it does not decrease serum prolactin concentrations and might not interfere with nursing.
◉ Effects in Breastfed Infants
Relevant published information was not found as of the revision date.
◉ Effects on Lactation and Breastmilk
Relevant published information in nursing mothers was not found as of the revision date. Unlike dopamine, fenoldopam infusion does not affect serum prolactin concentration in normal women. The prolactin level in a mother with established lactation may not affect her ability to breastfeed.

Fenoldopam is a benzazepine. It has a role as a dopaminergic antagonist, a vasodilator agent, an alpha-adrenergic agonist, a dopamine agonist and an antihypertensive agent.
A dopamine D1 receptor agonist that is used as an antihypertensive agent. It lowers blood pressure through arteriolar vasodilation.
Fenoldopam is a Dopaminergic Agonist. The mechanism of action of fenoldopam is as a Dopamine Agonist.
Fenoldopam is a benzazepine derivative with vasodilatory and antihypertensive properties. Fenoldopam, a dopamine (DA) receptor agonist, binds specifically to peripheral DA1 receptors and to alpha-2 adrenoceptors with moderate affinity. However, this agent exhibits no significant affinity to DA2, other alpha adrenergic, beta adrenergic, muscarinic, or serotonergic receptors. Receptor binding modulates the transmembrane flux of ions, thereby stimulating adenylate cyclase activity, as well as the release of prolactin. This results in vasodilatation, increased renal blood flow thereby enhancing natriuresis and diuresis leading to a lowering in diastolic blood pressure.
A dopamine D1 receptor agonist that is used as an antihypertensive agent. It lowers blood pressure through arteriolar vasodilation.

Drug Indication
For the in-hospital, short-term (up to 48 hours) management of severe hypertension when rapid, but quickly reversible, emergency reduction of blood pressure is clinically indicated, including malignant hypertension with deteriorating end-organ function.

Mechanism of Action
Fenoldopam is a rapid-acting vasodilator. It is an agonist for D₁-like dopamine receptors and binds with moderate affinity to α₂-adrenoceptors. It has no significant affinity for D₂-like receptors, α₁ and β-adrenoceptors, 5_HT1 and 5_HT2 receptors, or muscarinic receptors. Fenoldopam is a racemic mixture with the R-isomer responsible for the biological activity. The R-isomer has approximately 250-fold higher affinity for D₁-like receptors than does the S-isomer. In non-clinical studies, fenoldopam had no agonist effect on presynaptic D₂-like dopamine receptors, or α or β -adrenoceptors, nor did it affect angiotensin-converting enzyme activity. Fenoldopam may increase norepinephrine plasma concentration.
