Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care System Area Prescribing Committee (APC)

The Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care System Area Prescribing Committee (APC) has agreed the 1st line use of Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (ARBs) instead of an Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, for adults with hypertension where the use of an ARB or ACE is deemed equally appropriate.

Eprosartan and Azlisartan are not one of the locally preferred ARBs. See below

Losartan or candesartan - 1st line

Alternative options:
Irebsartan - Green
Telmisartan - Green
Valsartan - Green
Olmesartan - Green

Azlisartan - do not initiate in new patients
Eprosartan - do not initiate in new patients

Local hypertension guidelines / pathways will be reviewed and updated in light of this decision
