Abstract

A recent study reports that the combination of an angiotensin-receptor blocker (ARB) and a calcium-channel blocker (versus a high-dose ARB) is associated with improved blood pressure control and reduced cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and heart failure events in an elderly chronic kidney disease population. This finding raises the possibility of using fixed-dose drug combinations to improve efficacy and compliance of antihypertensive medications.
