The effects of mild or moderate hepatic impairment on systemic exposure of finerenone are small, consistent with its low hepatic extraction and preponderance of gastrointestinal over hepatic first-pass clearance. Considering the small increases in AUC and the absence of changes in Cmax, a dose adaptation does not appear to be warranted in patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment.
