Ibopamine (SB-7505), the 3,4-diisobutyryl ester of N-methyldopamine (epinine), exerts, on oral administration, cardiovascular effects similar to those of intravenously infused dopamine. Plasma levels and urinary excretion of metabolites were investigated in dogs after oral administration of 4 mg/kg of ibopamine hydrochloride. Epinine, which was readily formed from ibopamine by esterases hydrolysis, was present in plasma in free and sulphate-conjugated form. The urinary metabolites after 6 h from the administration amounted to 62% of the dose, as a sum of 37% of epinine 3-O-sulphate, and 15 and 10% of 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenylacetic acid and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid, respectively, both in free and conjugated form. When the main metabolite, epinine 3-O-sulphate, was administered intravenously it appeared to be excreted in urine without being deconjugated to any detectable extent, while it appeared to be partially deconjugated on oral administration.

D004298 Dopamine One of the catecholamine NEUROTRANSMITTERS in the brain. It is derived from TYROSINE and is the precursor to NOREPINEPHRINE and EPINEPHRINE. Dopamine is a major transmitter in the extrapyramidal system of the brain, and important in regulating movement. A family of receptors (RECEPTORS, DOPAMINE) mediate its action.
