Title: Any increased risk from ACE inhibitors?
Post by: nudephil on 01/04/2020 13:47:58

Dave sent us this:

There is information floating around on the web saying that those with hypertension, particularly if on lisinopril, are at high risk due to the ACE cell alteration in lungs. Is this true?

Also do statins cause concern?

What's the latest on the coronavirus and ACE inhibitors? No solid evidence yet as far as I'm aware.
