Patient's question:
My father-in-law has been saying that he has been experiencing dizziness recently. Worried, he went for a thorough examination. The doctor said it was kidney failure and high blood pressure. Hello, what should someone with kidney failure and high blood pressure eat to lower blood pressure?Doctor's answer:
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, such as benazepril, fosinopril, and perindopril, which are commonly used to treat kidney failure and hypertension, generally have a certain protective effect on the kidneys. Secondly, medium- and long-term calcium antagonists, such as amlodipine (Luo Hu Xi), verapamil, and cell repair agents like white heart, are the same. They are also better, especially when used together. Not only do they reduce antihypertensive effects, but they also enhance the protective effect on the kidneys. However, short-acting dihydropyridine antihypertensive drugs, such as short-acting nifedipine, have a better protective effect on the kidneys.
