Antihypertensive drug therapy for mild to moderate hypertension during pregnancy

TL;DR: There is a halving in the risk of developing severe hypertension associated with the use of antihypertensive drug(s) and other outcomes were only reported by a small proportion of studies, and there were no clear differences in any other outcomes.

Captopril-induced functional renal insufficiency in patients with bilateral renal-artery stenoses or renal-artery stenosis in a solitary kidney.
