Patent number: 9662315Abstract: Patients which are treated with stimulants (e.g., CNS stimulants, sympathomimetic amine, or anorectic/anorexigenic), such as patients being treated for attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder or obesity, often are at risk in developing high blood pressure. Similarly, patients which are treated with analgesics such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) over an extended period of time risk developing high blood pressure. These and other iatrogenic therapies (therapies which inadvertently cause an increase in, e.g., blood pressure) are addressed by providing the patient with one or more antihypertensive drugs, most preferably calcium channel blockers, during the treatment period. The CNS or NSAIDs can be provided separately or together with the antihypertensive drugs or as part of a combined composition. The adjunctive therapy can prevent or reduces cardiovascular disease and other complications of high blood pressure attendant with these iatrogenic therapies.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2015Date of Patent: May 30, 2017Assignee: Kitov Pharmaceuticals Ltd.Inventors: Peter C.
