Hepatic-Elderly patients are more likely to have decreased hepatic function thus potentially decreasing drug clearance. Mean AUC was 1.5 to 2-fold higher in elderly. Cardiovascular-Hypertensive effects may be more pronounced in the elderly and increase the risk for cardiovascular events in those with cardiovascular disease. Avoid use of the drug in patient with any cerebrovascular syndrome.
