Title: | Comparison of calcium antagonists with other antihypertensive agents. | Austin Authors: | Doyle, A E | Affiliation: | University of Melbourne, Department of Medicine, Austin Hospital, Heidelberg, Victoria, Australia | Issue Date: | 1-Dec-1985 | Publication information: | Journal of Hypertension. Supplement; 3(3): S531-3 | Abstract: | The demonstration that antihypertensive drug treatment reduces mortality and morbidity in mild hypertension has extended the indications for treatment. Verapamil, nitrendipine, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and beta-adrenoceptor blocking drugs are all equally effective in reducing blood pressure. The choice of drug depends on the presence or absence of specific contra-indications and the occurrence of side effects in individual patients. | Gov't Doc #: | 2908821 | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/12892 | Journal: | Journal of Hypertension.
