title: [New effects of telmisartan, an angiotensin 2 receptor blocker, in the treatment of arterial hypertension with metabolic disorders].
abstract: The authors undertook comparative analysis of the effica,cy and safety of PPARv-activating angiotensin-2 receptor blocker telmisartan (40--80 mg/day) in 80 patients with arterial hypertension (AH) and metabolic disorders (MD). Holter monitoring revealed a more pronounced anti-hypertensive effect of telmisartan compared with enalapril in patients with AH, MD, and compromised renal function. Similarly, telmisartan exerted more apparent positive effect on lipid and carbohydrate metabolism and had renoprotective action in patients with nephrogenic AH (it decreased proteinuria, stabilized creatinine clearance and serum potassium level whereas enalapril caused further deterioration of these parameters). It is concluded that telmisratan is more effective and safer than enalapril in patients with AH and MD.
