title: [Prestarium treatment of essential hypertension].
abstract: The aim of the study was to assess prestarium effects on central and renal hemodynamics, blood lipids in hypertensive subjects. Prestarium was given in a daily dose 4-6 mg to 30 patients with essential hypertension stage II free of cardiac decompensation and renal failure. Echocardiography, tetrapolar chest rheoplethysmography with assessment of hemodynamics, radionuclide tracing of renal blood flow, tests for cholesterol and blood electrolytes were made before treatment, on treatment weeks 2-3 and 12. It was found that prestarium lowers blood pressure and total peripheral vascular resistance. Myocardial conductivity was not affected, whereas renal circulation activated. Low-density lipoproteins cholesterol fell. No significant changes in electrolytes were seen. The drug was well tolerated. In view of good clinical effect and tolerance prestarium is recommended for treatment of essential hypertension stage II in the absence of cardiac decompensation and renal dysfunction.
