Cardiovascular risk associated with high sodium-containing drugs: A systematic review

ConclusionDespite numerous study limitations, this systematic review suggests three potential synergistic risk factors for cardiovascular complications after exposure to HSCD: a high sodium intake ( ≥ 1,500 mg/day), a long duration of exposure, and the presence of comorbidities. Further studies are required to characterize this iatrogenic risk. Trial registrationPROSPERO CRD42016047086.
