    Abstract:
    The effects of captopril (SQ 14225) on renal function were studied in 10 hypertensive patients. After 7 weeks of treatment (75 to 500 mg/day) renal plasma flow was practically unchanged and glomerular filtration rate was only slightly decreased despite a significant decrease in blood pressure. All indexes of glomerular capillary permeability and of tubular anatomic integrity remained normal during the treatment period.
