Abstract Telmisartan, a selective inhibitor of angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AT1), demonstrates nonlinear pharmacokinetics (PK) when orally administered in ascending doses to healthy volunteers, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study presents a physiologically based pharmacokinet...
