Angiotensin receptor blockers in heart failure after the ELITE II trial [PDF]
Specific blockers of the angiotensin type1 receptor, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), have been introduced as an alternative to angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) for the treatment of heart failure.

Background Pharmacy fill data are a practical tool for assessing medication nonadherence. However, previous studies have not compared the accuracy of pharmacy fill data to measurement of plasma drug levels, or chemical adherence testing (CAT).

The ARBs have very similar clinical profiles. They do, however, have different pharmacokinetic profiles, which may lead to some differences in efficacy. The newer agents irbesartan, candesartan, telmisartan, and olmesartan have longer half-lives and durations of action than the older agents losartan and valsartan (5).

Angiotensin receptor blocker neprilysin inhibitors
Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome that results from a structural or functional cardiac disorder that reduces the ability of the ventricle of the heart to fill with, or eject, blood. It is a multifaceted clinical condition that affects up to 2% of the population in the developed world, and is linked to significant morbidity and mortality; it is ...

Current and future use of angiotensin II receptor blockers in patients with COVID-19
No scientific evidence for the negative influence of angiotensin II receptor blockers onto COVID-19 clinical course has been identified so far. Prescribing angiotensin II receptor blockers as COVID-19 pathogenetic therapy could only be considered within ...

Angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) [PDF]
Guertin and colleagues describe potential savings from restricting use of ARBs in Canada.[1][1] The US Department of Veterans Affairs prefers angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitors over ARBs, with national criteria for use to guide prescribing.
