Swiss Society of Hypertension
For several weeks, there has been a significant shortage of spironolactone in Switzerland. This medication plays a critical role in the management of resistant hypertension and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Spironolactone, as a mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist, is proven to reduce mortality and hospitalizations in HFrEF patients and improve blood pressure control in those with resistant hypertension.
