[Effect of captopril on the level of arterial pressure and functional state of the kidney in symptomatic (renal) stable and malignant arterial hypertension].

Abstract

Captopril was used in 21 patients with various forms of stable and malignant hypertension. In symptomatic hypertension the drug had a good antihypertensive effect. When applied in patients with essential hypertension caused by chronic diffuse glomerulonephritis or chronic pyelonephritis captopril neither increased pathological changes in the urine, nor inhibited renal function.
