An Open Label Study with Hypertension Resistance and Treatment
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 4
Abstract
Hypertensive patients after 15-20 years develop hypertension resistance. The blood pressure in these patients is always 150 mm of Hg of systolic pressure. These patients regularly use ACEI, CCB and thiazide diuretic. Hypertension resistance definetely not respond to thiazide diuretic. In few patients it progresses to hypertensive complecations like Cerebro Vascular Disease. These patients usually respond to aldosterone receptor blocker (ARB), loop diuretics. ACEI = Angiotensin converting enzyme ,CCB = Calcium channel blocker ,ARB = Aldosteron receptor blocker ,CVD = Cerebro vascular disease
