Objective: In the puerperium, women with hypertensive disease of pregnancy remain at risk for maternal complications. The antihypertensive agent prescribed antepartum is usually continued postpartum; however, evidence regarding the most effective treatment is lacking. Therefore, we aimed to investigate which antihypertensive agent results in optimal treatment (both effectiveness and safety) of postpartum hypertension.

This systematic review aimed to explore the efficacy of both pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions in managing hypertension during pregnancy. It analyzed high-quality randomized controlled trials (RCTs), focusing on outcomes related to maternal and fetal health. The findings demonstrated that antihypertensive medications, particularly labetalol and nifedipine, effectively reduced the risks of severe preeclampsia (PE), preterm birth, and other complications.

Introduction: Based on office blood pressure (BP) values, hypertension is categorized into three stages: stage 1 (140-159/90-99 mmHg), stage 2 (160-179/100-109 mmHg), and stage 3 (≥180/≥110 mmHg). Malignant hypertension (MHT) is characterized by extreme BP elevation (systolic blood pressure above 200 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure above 130 mmHg) and acute microvascular damage affecting various organs, particularly the retinas, brain, and kidneys.
Objectives: The pathogenesis, predisposing variables, therapy, and preventive strategies for MHT were examined in this review.

A highly sensitive and rapid LC-MS/MS method was developed and validated for the quantification of dexamethasone in rat plasma and brain tissue. Protein precipitation method was used for sample preparation. The separation of dexamethasone and the IS (labetalol) was achieved on an Atlantis dC column using an isocratic mobile phase (10 mM ammonium formate and acetonitrile, 25/75, v/v) delivered at 0.

Among those traditionally described in the literature are: alpha-methyldopa, labetalol, and sustained-release nifedipine (NIF-RETARD). These drugs, in addition to being compatible with pregnancy, present additional eligibility criteria.
