A small British study found that an experimental treatment targeting excess aldosterone secretion may improve blood pressure for a long time after a 6-to-12-month course of pills. The study included 14 patients, and some maintained the improvement for up to two years after stopping treatment. A marker associated with aldosterone secretion fell by 99%, and average blood pressure dropped by about 25 millimeters of mercury. Blood pressure returned to normal in about a quarter of participants without other medication. However, the findings are preliminary and do not mean that hypertension in general has been cured; a larger trial is needed to confirm the treatment’s effectiveness and safety.
