Repurposing antihypertensive drugs for pain disorders: a drug-target mendelian randomization study.

Authors

Du K, Li A, Zhang CY, Li SM, Chen P

Abstract

Addressing the rising prevalence of pain disorders and limitations of current analgesics, our study explores repurposing antihypertensive drugs for pain management, inspired by the link between hypertension and pain. We leverage a drug-target Mendelian Randomization (MR) approach to explore their dual benefits and establish causal connections.
