Effectiveness and metabolic effects of perindopril and diuretics combination in primary hypertension

Abstract: The effectiveness as well as the metabolic effects of the combination of diuretics [hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) vs indapamide (IND)] and perindopril (P) in 14 patients (7 male, 7 female) aged 37-62 years with mild idiopathic hypertension were studied. Following a 4-week washout period and a 4-week period of monotherapy with P (4 mg/daily), IND (2.5 mg/daily) or HCT (25 mg/daily) was added for 4 weeks. Selection of the diuretic agent was random. Following a 4-week wash-out period from the diuretic, in which only … Show more

“…These metabolic effects are commonly seen with diuretic therapy and may be ameliorated by the combination with ACE inhibitor therapy. 41 The decrease in creatinine clearance seen in both groups is in keeping with that seen with most antihypertensive therapy and particularly with RAS inhibitors.…”

“…Perindopril, in addition to the blood pressure reduction, also showed a slight increase in serum K+ (data not shown) with a decrease in urNa + excretion and an improvement in the glycosylated hemoglobin. This is in accordance with previous data, showing that perindopril can induce a slight serum K+ increase and, although not significantly, a slight improvement on serum glucose and insulin sensitivity [46].…”

“…Regarding other ACE inhibitors, perindopril [56,57], trandolapril [58] and quinapril [59] appear to have a "neutral" effect on SUA levels. Lisinopril may have no effect or only cause a slight decrease in SUA levels [60,61].…”
