摘要
Antihypertensive medications can cause symptoms of orthostatic hypotension and are therefore hypothesized to independently increase the risk of falls and fall-related injuries such as bone fractures. For this reason, their use is sometimes avoided or discontinued in older people who are at risk. However, evidence regarding the association of antihypertensive medications with fracture risk is inconclusive, with some studies even suggesting a protective benefit.
