Summary: Progression of chronic nephropathies can be significantly retarded by optimal control of blood
pressure. To achieve target blood pressure combined treatment is usually necessary in patients
with chronic nephropathies. Drugs interfere with the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (angiotensin
converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin antagonists) have as compared with other
antihypertensive agents with a comparable blood pressure control a more marked renoprotective
effect and are renoprotective also in normotensive microalbuminuric patients with diabetic nephropathy
and in proteinuric patients with non-diabetic nephropathies. Treatment with angiotensin
converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin antagonists should be started as soon as
possible and should be lifelong.
