Should We STOP Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors/Angiotensin Receptor Blockers in Advanced Kidney Disease?

Aimun Ahmed, Tom Jorna, Sunil Bhandari

Short summary

The benefit of continuing ACE inhibitors (ACEi) or angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) in advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) with an estimated GFR (eGFR) below 30 ml/min/1.73 m2 remains uncertain, with no clear evidence of cardiovascular risk reduction in this population.
