The effect on kidney function, vasoactive systems and ascites outcome of long-term treatment with propranolol plus isosorbide-5-mononitrate, a combined therapy proven more effective than propranolol alone in decreasing portal pressure in the cirrhotic patient, is unknown. Thirty cirrhotic patients w

The association beta-blockers plus nitrates has been reported to impair renal function and renal sodium handling, leading to increased risk of development of ascites, or worsening of a preexisting ascites, or increase in the requirements of diuretic agents.

This study investigated whether oral doses of isosorbide-5-mononitrate, a preferential venous dilator that decreases portal pressure, could enhance the effects of propranolol on portal hypertension. Taking part in the study were 28 patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension. Twenty patients (gr
In order to compare ibopamine (IBO), a dopamine congener, with isosorbide mononitrate (ISMN) and to study their interaction in effects on the capacitance vasculature in congestive heart failure (CHF), a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, doubleblind clinical trial was performed in 32 patie
