  1. Apr 28, 2019 · Indeed, a new class of drug, the angiotensin receptorneprilysin inhibitors (ARNi), has the ability to counteract the effects of angiotensin II as well as to increase the activity of NPs. ARNi have already been proven to be effective in the treatment of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.

  2. Jun 29, 2023 · The use of ARNI in heart failure is supported by clinical trials and guidelines, with ARNI being one of the four medications recommended for treating heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).

  3. Recently, the addition of neprilysin inhibition to angiotensin receptor blockade has been shown to be even more effective than angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition alone in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, marking an important new milestone in heart failure treatment.

    Recognition that neurohormonal activation plays a central role in the pathogenesis of heart failure (HF) led to the development of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs), angiotensin receptor blockers, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists and beta blockers. While there has been substantial success with these neurohormonal blocking drugs...

    In addition to contributing to the breakdown of counter-regulatory peptides, neprilysin also is involved in the metabolism of Ang II. Since the use of a neprilysin inhibitor alone would increase levels of Ang II, a peptide known to mediate long-term adverse efects on the heart and blood vessels, as well as the levels of potentially beneficial pepti...

    The clinical trial results reviewed in this manuscript provide compelling evidence that sacubitril-valsartan should be considered as first line therapy in patients with class C HFrEF. An ARNI can be started either in-hospital once the patient has stabilized (according to criteria outlined in the PIONEER-HF study) or in the out-patient setting. Ther...

    In patients with class C HFrEF ARNI's should be used in association with an evidence based beta blocker (i.e., carvedilol, either short or long-acting, metoprolol succinate or bisoprolol) and an MRA. The order in which these agents should be used is left to the discretion of the clinician managing the patient's care. The practice of the author is t...

    The development and testing of an ARNI in randomized clinical trials (RCTs) has resulted in an important new approach for managing patients with stage C HFrEF. Available evidence shows that sacubitril-valsartan is superior to enalapril in improving outcomes in this population. As a result, the use of sacubitril-valsartan is now guideline recommende...

  7. Apr 17, 2023 · ARNI might have beneficial effects on the kidneys because of its ability to improve cardiac function in patients with heart failure and affect renal hemodynamics by enhancing the effects of hormones such as natriuretic peptide.
