1 cause of death associated with hypertension and is actually a group of disorders that include heart failure, ischemic heart disease, and left ventricular hypertrophy Treatment Common medications include diuretics, beta blockers, calcium channel blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor antagonists, and direct vasodilators.
Generally, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) or angiotensin II receptor antagonists (ARBs) are used, as they have been found to slow the progression of CKD to stage 5 Initial treatment One of the most important parts of treatment for chronic kidney disease is to control the disease that is causing it.
According to the FDA-approved PI, Benicar and Benicar HCT are angiotensin II receptor antagonists.
