Heart health pill tested for stiff arteries in overweight adults
NCT ID NCT03837626
Summary
This study tested whether a medication called amiloride could improve the health and flexibility of blood vessels in overweight adults with insulin resistance. 137 men and women, aged 30-70, were randomly assigned to take either amiloride or a placebo pill for 24 weeks. Researchers measured the stiffness of participants' arteries before, during, and after treatment to see if the drug made a difference.
