Abstract
Studies of renal hemodynamics were carried out in 84 patients with essential hypertension during long-term antihypertensive therapy with a number of drugs. Renal perfusion was maintained or enhanced despite a fall in mean arterial pressure during therapy with hydrochlorothiazide, furosemide, clonidine, prazosin, and the combination of guanabenz and hydrochlorothiazide. Renal perfusion deteriorated during long-term treatment with propranolol. Renal hemodynamics may be enhanced, maintained, or adversely influenced depending on the choice of antihypertensive agent.
