Some researchers have hypothesized that since antihypertensive drugs like ACE inhibitors and angiotensin II receptor blockers, or ARBs, increase ACE2, they might alter the risk of severe COVID-19 disease. Several cardiovascular societies recommend that patients who take ACE inhibitors and ARBs should continue to do so, arguing that the increased protection from severe disease that these drugs might provide is worth the possible increased risk of infection. A case-population study found that compared to other antihypertensive drugs, ACE inhibitors and ARBs were not associated with an increased risk of COVID-19 requiring admission to the hospital. In this clip, Dr. Rhonda Patrick describes the effect of antihypertensive drugs.
