Prazosin was used as additional therapy in seven patients with severe chronic congestive cardiac failure. The effect on renal function in this situation was measured. Renal function improved in four of the seven patients, and this improvement was associated with improvement in their clinical condition; in two other patients, modest improvement in renal function was not associated with symptomatic relief which may have been the result of a gain in weight.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
