A member asked:
Does angiotensin receptor blockers protect or harm the kidneys and can used for my father with hypertension and blood creatinine level of 1.7 mg/dl.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
ARBs can be used: Safely in patients with renal disease, as they have many beneficial effects even tho they may increase the Creat a bit more. With creatine of 1.7 ur dad should be followed regularly by his doc. Good luck.
