title: [Key drugs and doses in the hypertension's treatment in child in France].
abstract: The prescription drug for hypertension in children remains difficult because of the lack of pharmacological data validated for this age of life. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has recently proposed some antihypertensive regimens orally. The authors found it useful to reproduce a table by adding all the necessary data for its use in France. Here is a list of French medicines and doses applied to children. Similarly, they made a second table for injectable antihypertensive treatment based on American recommendations--but not yet validated by FDA.
