Interesting conclusions in a study reported in the JAMA Network Open:
The use of ARBs may be associated with an increased risk of suicide compared with ACEIs.
Investigators matched 964 cases to 3856 controls. Compared to ACE inhibitors, ARBs were associated with 63% higher risk of death by suicide. The results remained significant (60% increase) when individuals with history of self-harm were excluded.
