Failure of captopril to reverse the renal crisis of scleroderma.
Captopril, an oral inhibitor of angiotensin converting enzyme, has recently been described as causing a dramatic reversal of the renal crisis in scleroderma in 2 patients(1). We report here 2 patients with scleroderma, hypertension, and rapidly deteriorating renal function who were given captopril. Despite good blood pressure control, captopril had no effect on renal function, both patients req...
متن کاملHepatic coma with renal failure, treated by repeated exchange transfusion.
Hepatic coma following acute hepatic necrosis carries a high mortality in spite of conventional therapy (Katz et al., 1962; McDonald and De la Harpe, 1963; Cook and Sherlock, 1965), but the concomitant development of renal failure makes the prognosis even worse (Hecker and Sherlock, 1956).

متن کاملReversible Renal Failure Due to Captopril in a Patient with Transplant Artery Stenosis
A patient who was subsequently shown to have stenosis of the artery to a transplanted kidney sustained three episodes of impaired renal function during treatment with low doses of captopril. On each occasion this was reversed by withdrawal of therapy. The effect was not related to reduction of blood pressure since lower pressures were recorded during treatment with minoxidil, without deteriorat...

متن کاملEffects of captopril and enalapril on renal function in elderly patients with chronic heart failure.
OBJECTIVE To compare the effects on renal function of captopril and enalapril in elderly patients with chronic heart failure. DESIGN A multi-centre double-blind parallel-group comparison of the two angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, captopril (12.5 mg bid) and enalapril (2.5 mg bid). SUBJECTS 80 elderly patients with chronic heart failure (41 in the captopril group, 39 in the e...
