Abstract | Adequate controlled blood pressure decreases the risk of cardiovascular events. However, the elderly are more vulnerable and thereby more prone to side effects of antihypertensive drugs. A lack of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) studies in older patients makes specific and tailored advices towards antihypertensive drug therapy difficult. The aim of our study, DiffErenCes In antihypertenSive drug levels In patients with hypertensiON (DECISION), is to fill in this PK/PD knowledge gap and move towards precision dosing. DECISION is a prospective observational PK/PD study set up to determine the difference in exposure to the antihypertensive drugs, losartan and perindopril, measured by drug levels in blood. The area under the curve (AUC; PK) and furthermore the association between the AUC and the effect on blood pressure (PD) will be compared between elderly and younger patients. |
