Life-threatening hyperkalemia during a combined therapy with the angiotensin receptor blocker candesartan and spironolactone.
We describe a hypertensive nephrosclerosis patient presenting with severe hyperkalemia due to a combination therapy of the angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) candesartan and spironolactone despite mildly decreased renal function. Recently, ARBs are replacing the ACE inhibitors. The combined therapy with ARB and spironolactone will eventually become the standard regimen. The strict attention and...
متن کاملEffect of angiotensin II type 1-receptor blocker candesartan on hypertensive Parkinson’s disease
Angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) therapy has been proven to be well tolerated and effective in the management of hypertension, chronic heart failure with left ventricular dysfunction, and the prevention and progression of diabetic renal disease. ARB also shows various effects other than a depression effect. We investigated the effect of candesartan cilexetil, one of a number of angiotensin...
متن کاملAzilsartan: Novel Angiotensin Receptor Blocker.
OBJECTIVE To describe the efficacy and safety profile of the new angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), "Azilsartan Medoxomil", reviewing data available from both clinical and pre-clinical studies. MATERIAL We completed a review of the English literature from PubMed using the keywords- azilsartan medoxomil, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB), angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) and ...
متن کاملAmelioration of cognitive impairment in the type-2 diabetic mouse by the angiotensin II type-1 receptor blocker candesartan.
Angiotensin II type-1 receptor blockers are widely used with the expectation of prevention of stroke, potential effects to ameliorate of type-2 diabetes, which seems to be closely associated with the impairment of cognitive function in humans. Recently, we have reported that an angiotensin II type-1 receptor blocker prevented cognitive impairment in mice after focal cerebral ischemia, at least ...
متن کاملEffect of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor blocker candesartan on endothelial function in patients with essential hypertension.
Patients with essential hypertension are characterized by impaired basal and agonist-evoked nitric oxide release and increased endogenous endothelin (ET)-1-induced vasoconstriction. To assess whether candesartan, an angiotensin II type 1 receptor blocker, can improve endothelial function, we studied the changes in forearm blood flow (FBF) induced in 15 hypertensive patients and in 15 control su...
