Angiotensin II (AT-II)-Receptor Antagonists are Reviewed. Research focused on blocking the renin- angiotensin system (RAS) led to the discovery of angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitors ...
In contrast, ARBs would be expected to inhibit the biologic effects of angiotensin II more completely than ACE inhibitors, since they block the pathway more distally at the level of the receptor ...
The dual-action agent LCZ696 blocks the angiotensin II receptor (via a valsartan moiety ... single-action ACE inhibitors or calcium-channel blockers. Treatment with omapatrilat is associated ...
and angiotensin-II-receptor blockers (ARBs) in the prevention of AF. The study aimed to estimate the magnitude of this effect and define patient subgroups most likely to benefit. This meta ...
Studying the cells of people and genetically engineered mice, Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists say they have uncovered a potential reason why patients with Loeys-Dietz syndrome, an inherited ...
Nursing mothers: not recommended. Lithium toxicity potentiated by diuretics, ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers, indomethacin, ibuprofen, naproxen (possibly other NSAIDs, including ...
