2008年9月18日 · Drug-induced blood pressure elevations represent an important and modifiable cause of secondary hypertension; therefore, it is imperative that pharmacists recognize this causal relationship.

2017年6月16日 · This article will discuss some of the drug-induced causes of secondary hypertension. Excessive dietary sodium intake contributes to resistant hypertension by directly increasing blood pressure and by blunting the efficacy of most classes of antihypertensive drugs .

The elevation of blood pressure in drug-induced hypertension occurs through a variety of mechanisms, most notably, sodium and fluid retention, activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, alteration of vascular tone, or a combination of these pathways.

2012年1月1日 · Careful evaluation of a patient's drug regimen may identify chemically induced hypertension and obviate unnecessary evaluation and facilitate antihypertensive therapy. Once chemical-induced hypertension has been identified, discontinuation of the causative agent is recommended, although hypertension can often be managed by specific therapy and ...

Most patients with high blood pressure (BP) have essential hypertension (HTN) or well-known forms of secondary HTN such as renal parenchymal disease, renal artery steno-sis, hyperaldosteronism, or pheochromocytoma. Most phy-sicians are less aware of other secondary forms of HTN such as drug-induced HTN. For a comprehensive clinical

2019年4月1日 · The present manuscript aimed to review the state of the art on potential causes of hypertension induced by use/abuse of drugs or substances, with a special focus on preferred antihypertensive drugs to utilize when drug-induced hypertension represents …

A myriad variety of therapeutic agents or chemical substances can induce either a transient or persistent increase in blood pressure, or interfere with the blood pressure-lowering effects of antihypertensive drugs. Some agents cause either sodium retention or extracellular volume expansion, or activ …

2015年9月15日 · HTN should be considered as a class effect. The incidence of HTN is dose related and preexisting hypertension, old age (≥60 years), and overweight (≥ 25 kg/m 2) are risk factors for anti-VEGF therapy-induced BP elevation. Mild, dose dependent increase in BP.

Most patients with hypertension have essential hypertension or well-known forms of secondary hy-pertension, such as renal disease, renal artery stenosis, or common endocrine diseases (hyperaldoster-onism or pheochromocytoma). Physicians are less aware of drug induced hypertension. A variety of

2017年4月27日 · Volume retention is one of the most well-known mechanisms responsible for drug-induced elevations in blood pressure. Several commonly used classes of medications can elevate blood pressure via this mechanism, including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), sex hormones, and corticosteroids.
