The Effect of Antihypertensive Medications on Testing for Primary Aldosteronism
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021 Primary aldosteronism (PA) is a potentially curable form of secondary hypertension caused by excessive renin-independent aldosterone secretion, leading to increased target organ damage and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
