Broader implementation will depend on embedding PA screening within existing hypertension management frameworks, supported by education for clini - cians and individuals, and ongoing monitoring to ensure ben - efits reach all populations equitably.

To support the adoption of this recommendation and address challenges in implemen - tation, the guideline offers PA screening and management al - gorithms as practical tools ( Figs. 1 - 3 ).

Medical Therapy With Epithelial Sodium-Channel Inhibitors vs Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists (Steroidal and Nonsteroidal) for Individuals With Primary Aldosteronism Background With increased screening and diagnosis of primary aldosteronism (PA), the need for medical treatment will continue to grow ( 209 ).

The most commonly used and targeted medical treatments are mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs), which are gener - ally widely available and inexpensive. For individuals who cannot tolerate MRAs (eg, due to effects on androgen or progesterone re - ceptors), a lower-cost, second-line option such as epithelial s...

PA is often associated with resistant or refractory hypertension ( 219 ). The significance of aldosterone in resistant hypertension is supported by studies demonstrating that aldosterone synthase inhibitors reduce blood pressure (BP) in treatment-resistant hypertension ( 220 ).

In PA, renal sodium reabsorption is increased, leading to vol - ume expansion and higher BP. The increased sodium reabsorp - tion is due to aldosterone-mediated activation of renal mineralocorticoid receptors (MRs) and consequent increased ex - pression and activation of the renal ENaCs ( 221 ).

Increased ENaC activity leads to increased sodium reabsorption and potas - sium excretion in the distal convoluted nephron. ENaC is a major regulator of sodium excretion during feedback regulation of BP by the renin – angiotensin – aldosterone system (RAAS) ( 221 , 222 ).

End-organ damage in individuals with PA is more severe than in individuals with primary hypertension, and includes left ven - tricular hypertrophy, cardiac fibrosis, arterial stiffness, tubuloin - terstitial fibrosis, microalbuminuria, and microvascular damage ( 2 , 223 , 224 ).

ENaCs are also expressed in the cardiovascular system, and their activation promotes cardiovascular fibrosis, vascular dysfunction, and arterial stiffening ( 222 , 225 ). Reducing effects of excess aldosterone by blocking MRs or inhibiting ENaC activation could attenuate PA-induced hyper - tension, sodium reabsorption,...

This suggests the potential utility of ENaC inhibitors like ami - loride and triamterene in the treatment of individuals with PA. Question 10. Should epithelial sodium-channel inhibitors vs mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (steroidal and nonsteroidal) be used for medical treatment of primary aldosteronism?

Recommendation 10 For individuals with primary aldosteronism (PA) receiv - ing PA-specific medical therapy, we suggest using min - eralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) rather than epithelial sodium-channel (ENaC) inhibitors (amiloride, triamterene) (2 | ⊕ OOO).

Technical remark: • The recommendation (see Fig. 3 ) does not apply to clinical conditions in which spironolactone is contra - indicated (eg, hyperkalemia, advanced renal impair - ment, or pregnancy) or if a non-spironolactone MRA were indicated for other non-PA indications (eg, heart failure).

The systematic review did not find any studies directly com - paring ENaC inhibitors vs MRAs in the medical treatment of PA, although a few studies compared ENaC inhibitors and spironolactone (but not eplerenone) in resistant hypertension.

Because most individuals with resistant hypertension have PA, we used these studies as indirect evidence of hyperaldosteron - ism ( 40 , 164 ). The largest study was a sub-study of the PATHWAY-2 study, which was a randomized, double-blind crossover trial in individuals with resistant hypertension ( 19 ).

Results showed similar BP-lowering effects of spironolactone and amiloride. In the spironolactone, amiloride, losartan, and thiazide (SALT) double-blind crossover trial in individuals with low-renin hypertension and elevated aldosterone to re - nin ratio (ARR), spironolactone and high-dose amiloride had similar antihyp...

Together, these studies in resistant hypertension suggest ENaC inhibitors as a viable substitute for spironolactone when spironolactone is not tolerated ( 233 , 234 ). Beyond similar antihypertensive effects, both amiloride and spironolactone equally improved quality of life (QOL) in individuals with PA ( 234 , 5 ).

Amiloride may be an effective antihypertensive drug in indi - viduals with PA. However, whether the effects are superior or not to MRAs is unknown because head-to-head trials compar - ing them in PA are lacking.

In a small clinical study in individ - uals with PA, low-dose amiloride controlled BP within 1 to 4 weeks of initiation, with effects sustained for up to 20 years ( 227 ).

This was associated with improved vascular function (pulse-wave velocity-indicating cardiac output, vascular re - sistance, and arterial stiffness) and no cardiovascular events. Amiloride at higher doses corrected hypokalemia and normal - ized BP in individuals with PA ( 228 ).

A major assumption (as required with reliance on indirect evidence) is that both ENaC inhibitors and MRAs would like - ly yield equivalent clinical outcomes based on observations that they probably yield similar BP reductions in a PA popula - tion.

However, ENaC inhibitors do not block aldosterone dir - ectly; therefore, the impact of ENaC inhibitors and MRAs on aldosterone-specific end-organ injury may differ.

Evidence to Decision Factors • Cost-effectiveness data do not exist for ENaC inhibitors in medical PA treatment. However, cost estimates in the United States demonstrated equally low prices for equipo - tent amiloride and spironolactone.

• Accordingly, amiloride as an alternative to spironolactone may be cost-neutral. (See Question 9 for discussion of cost-effectiveness of spironolactone.) • Since the clinical impact (BP-lowering) of ENaC inhibitors is the same as spironolactone and given their similar low costs, similar cost-effectiveness is expected ...

• Cost neutrality may be especially relevant in Black individ - uals who are more likely to have low-renin hypertension ( 231 ). Some evidence exists that a significant proportion of these individuals may also have a Liddle-syndrome-type biochemical phenotype, which is strongly responsive to ENaC inhibitors ( 235 ).

• Accordingly, inclusion of ENaC inhibitors as an option for low-renin/PA hypertension could increase health equity.

Both drugs are low cost and both improve QOL. In addition to a lack of direct clinical evidence to recommend the ENaC amiloride over the MRA spironolactone as first- line therapy, questions remain as to whether amiloride would offer all the same benefits as an MRA.

There is some justification that MRA should be the preferred treat - ment in PA based on a small study of 10 individuals with hypertension and supranormal aldosterone secretion in which spironolactone (400 mg/day) had greater BP-lowering ef - fects than did amiloride (40 mg/day) as well as on the clear evidence that MR...
