Hypertension caused by kidney insufficiency, what antihypertensive drugs should be taken?

Patient's question:

My mom currently has high blood pressure. It is caused by her kidney function being impaired. I hope my mom's blood pressure can go down a little. For high blood pressure caused by incomplete kidney function, what antihypertensive drugs should she take? Do doctors have any methods?

Doctor's answer:

Hypertension caused by kidney insufficiency is also known as renal vascular hypertension in clinical diagnosis. The use of medications for renal vascular hypertension commonly includes calcium channel blockers, beta-blockers, diuretics, etc. Surgical treatment may be necessary when needed. Additionally, patients with renal vascular hypertension should follow a diet based on light, nutritious, and easily replenishable foods, avoiding spicy, greasy, and irritating foods.
