T Sagát, and M Sasinka, and K Furková, and V Milovský, and R Riedel, and E Tordová

Nine children aged 2 months to 13 (mean 6.6) years with renal hypertension were treated with captopril. The treatment lasted for 1.5 to 14 months. Maintenance doses ranged between 1 and 5 mg/kg/day. Good effect was achieved with captopril in children with normal renal function and in mild renal insufficiency. In patients with end-stage renal disease when dialysis failed to maintain normal body water captopril was ineffective.
