Antihypertensive

July 2019

The Institut national d’excellence en santé et en services sociaux (INESSS), in collaboration with a group of experts, has updated the medical protocol on hypertension.

This medical protocol concerns individuals aged 18 and over who are affected by hypertension. The main change allows the authorized person to make a downward adjustment of antihypertensive medications if undesirable or significant clinical effects appear.
