Overview

May support combination antihypertensives excluding diuretics in hemodialysis; leaves open optimal regimens pending randomized trials.

Structured PICO

P
Population
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients on hemodialysis with hypertension
I
Intervention
Antihypertensive drug therapy (including ACE inhibitors, ARBs, beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, minoxidil, and clonidine)

A combination of several antihypertensive drugs, excluding diuretics, is generally required for adequate blood pressure control and cardiovascular risk reduction in hemodialysis patients.
