Although maximally tolerated therapy with eplerenone and amiloride induced expected changes in renin, aldosterone and blood pressure, there were no meaningful changes in PTH or serum calcium levels in P-HPT patients. These results suggest that inhibition of aldosterone action does not have a clinically meaningful role in medical therapy for P-HPT.
