A member asked:
If someone was to have low angiotensin ii and low aldosterone would you expect to see a lower renin also?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Renin levels: If one has a low aldosterone and angiotensin ii, one would expect a high renin level. Renin leads to angiotensin i and ii synthesis. If those levels are low and the person is ambulatory, the person's renin would be expected to be high.
