P4559Assess of angiotensin receptor blockers therapy associated to mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists or to calcium channel blockers plus hydrochlorothiazide according central haemodynamic parameters
Abstract:Background
Protective effect of Angiotensin-II Receptor Blockers (ARBs) on major cardiovascular events might be partly independent of the degree of blood pressure reduction. Calcium channel blockers (CCBs), lower arterial pressure by decreasing total peripheral resistance without reducing cardiac output. Hydrochlorothiazide (Hctz) is one of the most commonly prescribed antihypertensive drugs worldwide, but associated with more frequent adverse effects, such as hypokalaemia, hyponatraemia, hyp… Show more
