E-drug: Analog substitution (cont)
---------------------------------------------
For information about the statins there is a very good report from the
Canadian Coordinating Office for Health Technology Assessment. The web
address is <www.ccohta.ca/newweb/entry_e.htm> You will have to
register to be able to download the pdf version of the document but
registration is free.
There is a review article in the 8 August 2000 issue of the Canadian
Medical Association Journal on the use of ACE inhibitors in treating
hypertension. This article can be downloaded at
<www.cma.ca/cmaj/vol-163/issue-3/issue-3.htm>
For the triptans see a Commentary in the 11 March 2000 issue of The
Lancet (pages 860-1).
