- Abstract
Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) were introduced into the UK antihypertensive drug market at a premium price relative to other antihypertensives during a period of evolving evidence about hypertension treatment. This study aimed to determine the UK antihypertensive drug budget impact as the first ARB market launched in December 1994 and what proportion of the increase was directly attributable to ARBs.
