Fixed dose combinations for the treatment arterial hypertension: the real way to improve control
Abstract
Insufficient control of blood pressure levels of the essential hypertension in Russia (less than 30% for women, less than 20% for men) was proven by epidemiology trials. This article is a review of the present opportunities to increase efficacy of treating hypertension by application of combined anti-hypertensive therapy and the advantages of fixed dose combinations (FDC). The authors scientifically prove the importance of using the combination, including angiotensin I-converting enzyme perindopril arginine and the long-half time dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker amlodipine in various clinical cases. Also the article summarizes the research of real clinical practice proving the high efficiency and safety of perindopril arginine /amlodipine FDC.
