Abstract

The paper discusses how to choose rational pharmacotherapy for arterial hypertension. It considers the abilities of angiotensin II receptor blockers to reduce a cardiovascular risk and to protect organs. Publications on olmesartan that has clinically proven its efficacy and safety versus placebo and drugs from other classes are reviewed. The antihypertensive efficacy of olmesartan is combined with additional organ-protective properties, with nephroprotective ones in particular, which expands its clinical applications.
