atorvastatin taken with losartan minipress

Am J Hypertens 2005;18:1496–1502 © 2005 American Journal of Hypertension, Ltd.Epidemiologic data suggest that dietary salt intake may be a contributing factor in the development of hypertension and that salt sensitivity is more frequently observed in African Americans than in the general population.Chronic hypertension has been shown to cause permanent changes (vascular remodeling) in blood vessel morphology in the kidney and heart.Experimentally, long-term antihypertensive treatment, specifically with inhibitors of RAAS, has been shown to induce both a regression of vascular structure (decrease medial thickness or increase lumen diameter) and a reduction in mean arterial pressure.In the current study, we used simvastatin (an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor) and losartan (an angiotensin II antagonist) to better understand the role of the RAAS and statins in the progression of hypertension in Dahl salt-sensitive rats.

Vascular reactivity of second-order mesenteric arteries was assessed in vitro.Simvastatin, losartan, and the drug combination attenuated the salt-induced increase in MAP. Prazosin (Minipress) is an oral medicine used to treat high blood pressure.Prazosin is a competitive alpha-1 adrenergic receptor blocker.

This observation adds to the increasing knowledge that statins may have beneficial cardiovascular effects independent of their cholesterol-lowering effects. The cannulas were externalized in the posterior cervical region, occluded with a metal plug, and flushed with heparinized saline every 12 h. Twenty-four hours later, blood (2 mL) was collected by free-flow from the individually housed animals and replaced by an equal volume of saline. Currently, healthcare professionals advise it is safe to drink grapefruit juice and eat grapefruit if you're taking other types of statins. Aortic and renal NADPH-dependent superoxide production was reduced by simvastatin, losartan, and the combination. Under anesthesia (ketamine/xylazine mixture), blood (5 mL) was obtained by cardiac puncture and the heart, kidneys, aorta, and mesenteric artery harvested.Tail–cuff plethysmography (Rat Tail BP Monitor and Universal Oscillograph, Harvard Apparatus Inc., Holliston, MA) was used to measure mean arterial pressure.

Mean blood pressure (MAP) was measured by tail–cuff plethysmography.

Simvastatin significantly reduced the effect of losartan on vascular reactivity in mesenteric arteries, suggesting that their combination may be contraindicated. By blocking alpha-1 receptors on muscle cesll that surround blood vessels, prazosin causes vasodilation (widening) of the blood vessels, and consequently decreases the resistance of blood flow.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is an important risk factor for incident chronic kidney disease (CKD). After acclimatization, the animals were put in individual cages, fed a high salt diet (8% NaCl), and were given either no treatment, simvastatin (3 mg/kg/d), losartan (10 mg/kg/d), or their combination, in the drinking water, for 3 weeks.
