Which Kind of Sartan Drugs Is Suitable for Kidney Disease Patients
2018-05-04 16:55Some patients with kidney disease need to take RAAS (pril or sartan), which can lower blood pressure and reduce proteinuria.
However, some places are often unable to provide such drugs continuously. When the patients finished eating the medicine, they found that the medicine he had consumed was out of stock. In this case, can the patients take another drug instead of the one they had before?
The answer is: you can change it.
Puli and sartan drugs have the similar functions to improve glomerular state with high pressure, high perfusion and high filtration.
However, sartan has little side effects and better patient compliance. It can be adhered to for a long time. So today, I will talk about several common sartan drugs.
Losartan is the first sartan drug in the world, and its accumulated experience and evidence-based evidence are abundant. It can reduce blood pressure and treat diabetic nephropathy. The disadvantage is that the half-life is only 6 - 9 hours. It does not guarantee 24 hours of blood pressure reduction with one time per day. And it's more expensive.
The antihypertensive effect of valsartan is similar to losartan, and is also slightly weaker. But it has many functions. So more people select losartan, and it is also as a result of its cheaper cost. Valsartan can reduce blood pressure, remit proteinuria, treat heart failure, and also prevent people with slightly higher blood sugar from progressing to diabetes.
Irbesartan is more effective than the first two in reducing blood pressure, its half-life is 11 - 15 hours. The effect is more durable and stable, and it is easy to reduce blood pressure. Good results and cheap prices make Irbesartan become the first choice among sartan drugs.
Telmisartan has the advantage of lowering blood pressure better than the previous ones and it is also the disadvantage. Some patients took a piece of medicine and found that the blood pressure was lowered too much, and thus change to have half. But the remaining half of the tablets are also susceptible to moisture, and the patients often turn to take other drugs. It also has the function of protecting the cardiovascular system, what is effective for myocardial infarction, stroke and diabetes.
For most patients, these 4 common antihypertensive drugs are not very different and can be taken at in replacement of each other, but about 20% of the patients need to choose their own drugs according to the differences in the subtleties.
Finally, I wish the patients all the best control of their blood pressure and urine protein.
