hello to all

do you know anything abaut aliskiren and if thera are side affects with renal malfunction and wegener

[Jack]

Sorry, but I'm not familiar with that one. For high blood pressure I have been taking Atenolol which also regulates heart rhythm to stop palpitations and also Ramipril which is also good for the Kidneys.

I don't recognize the name aliskiren-- what's it used for?

[Lola]

I believe it is used to treat hypertension. Trade name is Tekturna, a renin inhibitor. Renin acts on the kidneys to help control blood pressure.

[gmyi]

it is used for hypertencion in pacients with diabetis type 2

Hypertension, diabetes and Wegs-- triple threat to your kidneys. You should have a nephrologist who knows Wegs very well consulting on your case.

How is your care in Israel? Do you have access to Wegs specialists?
