Zusammenfassung: | Hypertension is a leading cause of heart attacks and strokes. Reaching target blood pressure (BP) in hypertension is the main condition optimization outlook for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. To solve this problem in a substantial portion of patients, who are in need of antihypertensive drugs, wherein 70-80% of the target blood pressure can be achieved using a combination therapy. Fixed combinations of antihypertensive drugs increase treatment compliance and provide better organ protection. The new fixed combination of highly selective β-blocker bisoprolol and the calcium antagonist amlodipine can achieve target BP levels in 82,5% of patients with a minimum frequency of side effects. |
