Comparative Effectiveness of Combination Therapy with Statins and Angiotensin‐Converting Enzyme Inhibitors versus Angiotensin II Receptor Blockers in Patients with Coronary Heart Disease: A Nationwide Population‐Based Cohort Study in Korea

Patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) frequently use the combination of a statin and renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system (RAAS) blocker, an angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), to control lipid levels and blood pressure, respectively, and the use of ARBs is increasing in Korean patients. Few studies are available, however, that have compared combination therapy with statin‐ACEIs versus statin‐ARBs. The objective of this study was to evaluate whether ARBs are associated with a reduced risk of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) compared with ACEIs when used in combination with statins in patients with established CHD.
