Abstract

The problem of failure to achieve the target blood pressure (BP) level remains actual for many countries in the world, including Russia. The modern strategy for the treatment of arterial hypertension (AH) is based on an integrated approach, including the correction of risk factors and prescribing of combined antihypertensive therapy at the stage of initial therapy, primarily for high cardiovascular risk patients. Combinations of calcium channel blockers of the dihydropyridine series and renin-angiotensin system, which have demonstrated the ability of significant reduction of the risk of cardiovascular complications development, are considered to be the most rational. A number of experimental and clinical studies have confirmed the high efficacy and safety of the fixed combination of amlodipine and losartan for BP control in people with AH. Taking all the abovementioned into account, the purpose of the review is to discuss the possibilities and perspectives for prescribing a fixed combination of amlodipine and losartan in multimorbid patients with arterial hypertension at high cardiovascular risk.
