Safety And Efficacy Of Losartan (50 Mg) In Post Dialysis Euvolemic Hypertensive Patients: A Single-Blind Randomized Control Trial
Patients with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) require lifelong fluid replacement therapy or renal transplant. Almost 60-90 % haemodialysis patients are hypertensive. Studies aimed at elucidating the pathophysiology of hypertension among haemodialysis patients concluded that 90% cases resulted from so...
