Do pharmacological interventions improve postural blood pressure in adults with orthostatic hypotension?
Do pharmacological interventions improve postural blood pressure in adults with orthostatic hypotension?
Current evidence for pharmacological treatment of orthostatic hypotension is limited by poor trial quality, though midodrine and fludrocortisone show some efficacy in increasing standing blood pressure.
