Tenapanor is an orally bioavailable inhibitor of sodium-hydrogen exchanger 3 (NHE-3; IC50 = 10 nM for the recombinant rat protein).1 Tenapanor (10 µM) inhibits intestinal fluid absorption in mouse jejunum, but not distal colon, in a closed intestine loop assay.2 It also lowers both the sodium and phosphate urinary-to-dietary ratio in a dose-dependent manner in rats.1 Tenapanor (5 mg/kg) reverses decreases in stool pellet numbers and water content induced by loperamide (Item No. 14875) and prevents loperamide-induced constipation in mice.2 Formulations containing tenapanor have been used in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome with constipation.
