A member asked:
Can you tell me if there are non-surgical options for renal artery stenosis?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
BP Medicines: The non surgical options likely will include having to take multiple blood pressure medicines. The renal artery stenosis causes an increase in blood pressure, so the hypertension must be controlled or your kidneys could fail.
