How Can Glomerular Hypertension Be Managed or Prevented?
Management of glomerular hypertension involves addressing the underlying cause. In cases of toxicological exposure, removing or reducing exposure to the offending substance is paramount. Pharmacological interventions may include the use of ACE inhibitors or angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) to reduce glomerular pressure. Lifestyle modifications, such as dietary changes and blood pressure control, are also essential components of management. Prevention strategies focus on minimizing exposure to known nephrotoxins and implementing protective measures in occupational settings.
