Users of blood pressure medicine have a lower risk of dying from influenza and pneumonia.
Drugs to lower blood pressure of the type ACE inhibitors or angiotensin II receptor blockers reduce the mortality rate of influenza and pneumonia. This is the main conclusion of a new reassuring study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association, which Christian Fynbo Christiansen and

Timing of various medications? What do most of you do?
I've just read a 2013 article in AARP's "The Daily" regarding when to take various medications (https://www.aarp.org/health/drugs-supplements/info-12-2013/timing-of-daily-medications). Cancer drugs are not mentioned except to suggest that certain cancer cells may be more vulnerable when other cells

Possible links between ACE inhibitors and coronavirus
Over the past few months, many of you may have seen conflicting news stories about possible links between ACE inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers and Covid-19. Here’s what we know about the evidence so far, and why more research is needed. Hopefully a useful read for anyone with a heart condition

How long do people carry on taking beta blockers and ace inhibitors after open heart surgery? I had a aortic valve replacement 3 months ago.

Nodules
The specialist still wishes to ablate or nullify them using
TACE
procedures, (a tiny tube is inserted into an artery and fed through to the liver and deposits tiny plastic granules in order to cut off the blood supply to the nodules).

Stage 4 ckd with Congestive Heart Failure
I was in the hospital last month for my CHF. Lungs were filling with fluid and couldn't breathe. I am 47 years old. They checked my kidney function as I also have CKD. My eGFR was at 23 and ejection fraction of the heart at 22% They took me off my Lisinopril because of my kidneys and replaced it with

Popular hypertension drugs don't increase risk of COVID-19 severity, fatality.
A new Northwestern Medicine study in mice found a widely used class of drugs to treat patients with hypertension, cardiovascular disease and diabetic kidney disease — many of whom are elderly — does not increase the risk of developing a severe and potentially fatal COVID-19 infection, as previously feared

IGA nephropathy resistant proteinuria
Hey i posted here last year about my partner who got diagnosed out of blue with IGA nephropathy. Biopsy showed it can belong to good prognosis and medication with ACE inhibitors started soon after. He was on Quinapiril 10mg initialy and responded well to it after 5 months to bring down protein from 1

Antihypertensive drugs & PCa-specific mortality
New study from Finland [1]. This topic has been raised before. "Antihypertensive drug use overall was associated with an increased risk of PCa-specific death (Pre-PCa: 1.21...). "With respect to the separate drug groups, angiotensin II type 1 receptor (ATr) blockers, were associated with improved survival

Eating new transgenic rice could lower high blood pressure
Sort of interesting A leading cause of heart disease and stroke, high blood pressure (aka hypertension) is often treated with drugs known as ACE inhibitors. These target the angiotensin converting enzyme in the patient's hormonal system – that enzyme can cause hypertension by narrowing the blood vessels

Coronavirus May Be a Blood Vessel Disease, Which Explains EverythingMany of the infection’s bizarre symptoms have one thing in common
In April, blood clots emerged as one of the many mysterious symptoms attributed to Covid-19, a disease that had initially been thought to largely affect the lungs in the form of pneumonia. Quickly after came reports of young people dying due to coronavirus-related strokes. Next it was Covid toes — painful

Covid 19 protection
Hi. So in contrast to recent speculation in the media it appears that drugs such as ARB's and Ace inhibitors may provide some protection against coronavirus. http://links.mkt1881.com/ctt

Is this normal?
After
Tace
and the hospital saying they could offer my family member no further treatment we have literally been left alone with no medical help whatsoever for over 2 years only pain killers. Is this normal? Is there anything at all we could try any trials any new drugs? Anything?
