[Comparative anti-hypertensive effectiveness and tolerance of drugs in patients with mild and moderate arterial hypertension].
120 patients with mild and moderate arterial hypertension were treated outpatiently for 6 weeks with dilren (group 1), norvask (group 2), invoril (group 3) and caposide (group 4). Each group consisted of 30 patients. The drugs were given in doses: 300 mg/day, 5-10 mg/day, 10-20 mg/day and 1 tablet a day (50 mg capoten + 25 mg hydrochlortiaside), respectively. Arterial pressure was measured by patients in the morning and in the evening. A complete hypotensive response (AP < 140/90 mm Hg) to dilren was achieved in 25(83.3) patients, norvask in 22(73.3%), invoril in 18(60%), caposide in 13(43.3%) patients. The other 45(37.5%) patients responded partially. Side effects occurred in 31(25.8%) of 120 patients. In caposide, norvask, invoril and dilren treatment they were recorded in 9(30.3%), 8(26.7%), 8(26.7%) and 6(20%) patients, respectively. 11 patients withdrew because of side effects. Thus, dilren (300 mg/day), norvask (5-10 mg/day) and invoril (10-20 mg/day) are effective and safe in mild and moderate arterial hypertension. Caposide (1 tablet a day) failed to provide an adequate fall in arterial pressure throughout 24 hours.
