Angiotensin II receptor blockers are safe in patients with prior angioedema related to angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitors – a nationwide registry‐based cohort study

It has long been suggested that angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) and angiotensin II receptor blockers (AT2s) have some degree of ‘cross‐reactivity' in causing angioedema. Therefore, caution has been advised when switching patients with ACEi‐related angioedema to an AT2.
