Calcium Channels Blockers and Progression of Kidney Disease

Abstract: We aimed to compare regimens including calcium channel blockers (CCBs) to non-CCBs agents such as angiotensinconverting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) and/or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) regarding progression in nondiabetic chronic kidney disease (CKD). There was no difference in reaching serum creatinine concentration (Cr) to more than 7 mg/dL and/or commencing dialysis. The CCB group compared to non-CCBs displayed a higher mean Cr (as well as a higher rate of increase) and proteinuria. Medication with CCB… Show more

“…Clinical and experimental data have indicated renoprotective differences among the classes of CCBs [11][12][13]. Amlodipine inhibits the slow L-type voltage-gated calcium channels, with slow absorption (T max = 6 h) and longer half-life (t 1/2 = 30-60 h) [14].…”

“…Of these 22 studies, 14 studies were excluded for the following reasons: duplicate data in 4 studies; there were 3 studies concerning renal outcomes but no ESRD or all-cause mortality [12][13][14] ; two studies were not randomized controlled trials 15,16 ; all the participants in two studies were hemodialysis patients 17,18 ; one study was about the survival only in kidney transplant patients 19 ; the number of participants in two trials was less than 100 20,21 ; Totally, eight studies were therefore included in this meta-analysis.…”
