Aim. Evaluation of the opportunity to improve efficacy of arterial hypertension (AH) control using fixed combination of perindopril arginine and amlodipine.Material and methods. Totally, 52 patients (27 men and 25 women, age 40-63 y.o.) studied, with AH 2-3 stage. All patients underwent 24-hour blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) with analysis of the data obtained: mean 24-hour pressure, velocity of morning hypertension onset for systolic BP (sBP) and diastolic BP (dBP), and variability of (Var) of PsBP (Var PsBPs, Var PsBPd). The inclusion criteria was non-sufficient control of blood pressure on the intake of voluntary combinations of ACE inhibitor and angiotensine II receptor blocker and diuretic or calcium channel blocker. For BP control, to all patients we prescribed fixed combination perindopril arginine/amlodipine with start dosage 10/5 mg (Prestance, “Les Laboratoires Servier”, France) with further possibility to increase dosage to 10 mg of perindopril arginine and amlodipine.Results. At the background of therapy provided, 84,6% of patients reached “target” BP. Mean 24-hour sBP decreased from 139,29±1,7 to 121,17±1,26 mmHg. (р<0,05), dBP decreased from 84,49±2,06 to 73,14±1,4 (р<0,05), mean BP decreased from 102,09±1,49 to 87,96±1,12 (р<0,05). 24-hour variability of sBP significantly reduced from 15,28±0,72 to 10,21±0,42 (р<0,05), dBP from 13,46±0,72 to 10,72±0,31 (р<0,001). Parameters of morning onset (MO) after the treatment also decreased. Before treatment MO sBP was (26±4,23 mmHg/hour), with the therapy — (16,3±4,03 mmHg/hour, р<0,01); also, MO dBP decreased from 24,7±2,35 mmHg/hour to 12±1,61 mmHg hour, р<0,01).Conclusion. Replacement of therapy for non-controlled AH with voluntary combinations of antihypertensive medications by fixed combination of perindopril arginine/amlodipine (Prestance) facilitated the effectiveness of AH control. Usage of the fixed combination of perindopril arginine/amlodipine in 84,6% helped to reach target values of BP. The effectiveness of BP control achieved, followed with ABPM data of 24-hour BP values decrease during the day and night, variability and velocity of morning BP onset. Usage of the drug studied showed good tolerability and high adherence of patients to treatment.
