RAAS inhibitor discontinuation more harmful than beneficial in hyperkalaemic CKD patients

25 Jul 2022

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with hyperkalaemia may fare better with maintaining than discontinuing treatment with a renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitor, as discontinuation poses risks of higher mortality and increased cardiovascular events, according to a study.
