Implication for health policy/practice/research/medical education: Hypertension and hyperuricemia are common problems in elderly patients.

It is suggested that lowering uric acid with allopurinol could be beneficial to prevent chronic insufficiency in the elderly patients with hypertension. Please cite this paper as: Mottaghi P.
