Abstract

The article discusses the problem of the use for the treatment of hypertension combination therapy. Advantages of application as a component of chlorthalidone therapy are discussed. Proofs of its effectiveness in lowering both blood pressure and risk of cardiovascular events compared with hydrochlorothiazide are stated. Anti-hypertensive effectiveness of one of the last appeared on the pharmacological market of receptor-blockers like angiotensin II azilsartan medoxomil in combination with chlorthalidone is discussed as well.
