Is it ok now to take and ace inhibitor and an arb together to treat hypertension? I am 50 yrs old diabetic and no renal issues or heart failure, and passed stress test 2 years ago. I was RX s this combo about 2 years ago by Cardiologist, but now it seems this thinking has changed, now it my be unsafe and also does not add much benefit in BP reduction. Previously, until now, I know that the combo was thought to show nice BP reduction. Thanks for your response.
