With the increase of hypertensive patients worldwide, the need for better antihypertensive drugs to achieve blood pressure standards and reduce complications is of great clinical significance. As an angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor, sacubitril/valsartan has been widely used in the treatment of heart failure, but its efficacy and safety in the treatment of middle-aged and elderly hypertensive patients are still controversial. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and safety of sacubitril/valsartan and other antihypertensive drugs in the treatment of middle-aged and elderly patients with hypertension.
