Abstract
Arterial hypertension (AH) remains one of the most prevalent cardiovascular disorder in the world, as one of the main risk factors of myocardial infarction and stroke development. Monotherapy of AH is effective in no more than one half of patients even with moderate increase of blood pressure. Combinational antihypertension treatment does influence pathogenetic mechanisms of AH being an optimal solution. It is worthful to apply a fixed combination of telmisartan and hydrochlorothiazide. Such combination provides additional antihypertensive effect with more significant decrease of blood pressure than for the components separately. Also it is protective for organs and tissues that makes it to prescribe such combination to a broad range of patients.
