Efficacy of atomoxetine versus midodrine for the treatment of orthostatic hypotension in autonomic failure.
The clinical presentation of autonomic failure is orthostatic hypotension. Severely affected patients require pharmacological treatment to prevent presyncopal symptoms or frank syncope. We previously reported in a proof of concept study that pediatric doses of the norepinephrine transporter blockade, atomoxetine, increases blood pressure in autonomic failure patients with residual sympathetic a...

METHODS Patients with symptomatic nOH due to Parkinson disease, multiple system atrophy, pure autonomic failure, or nondiabetic autonomic neuropathy underwent open-label droxidopa dose optimization (100-600 mg 3 times daily), followed, in responders, by 7-...

متن کاملManagement of neurogenic orthostatic hypotension: an update.
Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is common in elderly people and in patients with disorders such as diabetes and Parkinson's disease. Grading of the severity of OH and its effect on the patient's quality of life are important. The symptoms vary with orthostatic stress, and subtle symptoms such as tiredness and cognitive impairment should be recognised. Standard drug treatment for OH is effective bu...
متن کاملNeurogenic orthostatic hypotension: a pathophysiological approach.
Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is defined as a persistent, consistent, orthostatic fall in systolic blood pressure of 20 mm Hg or diastolic pressure of 10 mm Hg by 3 minutes of standing up.1 Acute, unexpected, episodic falls in blood pressure while standing, as in neurocardiogenic syncope, do not satisfy criteria for OH. Medical records for 0.4% of all hospitalizations in the United States includ...
