heal.abstract Background:l-Arginine is a nitric oxide precursor, which augments endothelium-dependent vasodilatation in hypercholesterolemic humans and animals. Endothelium-dependent vasodilation is attenuated in patients with hypertension; however the effects of oral l-arginine on endothelial function of the conduit arteries in patients with essential hypertension have not previously been investigated. Methods: In a prospective randomized double blind trial, 35 patients with essential hypertension received en
