Hypertension Theraphy

What is the most antihypertensive therapy protects the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular system? Have talked about names in cardiology authoritative speakers at the symposium “Optimizing to hypertensive therapy reduces cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risks” of the ESC Congress 2005 which was held in Stockholm.

The antihypertensive reduces vascular risk?

Once again in this authoritative occasion was highlighted as the main goal of treatment of hypertensive disease should not be considered the sole reduction of blood pressure to reach the target values recommended by recent guidelines, but a significant decrease risk of vascular disease of the heart, brain and related systems.

Although the last major international trials have however shown a significant reduction of vascular risk in correlation to a reduction in blood pressure in hypertensive patients, Bryan Williams, professor at the University of Leicester, in the first speech of the symposium, it was initially asked whether all types of medication available today are just as effective, not only in reducing blood pressure, but also in the entity of the reduction in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risk.

Is it possible that some groups of drugs are able to reduce the risk more significantly than others, despite equally effective in controlling blood pressure, thanks to ancillary benefits that accompany the principal action of certain substances (eg , activity on endothelial function, renal protection, control of values and anti-inflammatory efficacy of lipemia). But this is currently only a hypothesis can not yet proven. More plausible is instead the possibility that some antihypertensive drugs (such as blockers of the renin-angiotensin system), or some combination of therapeutic classes, are able to delay the onset of diabetes mellitus or to obtain more evidence of harm reduction ’s body linked to high blood pressure or prevent it from developing as it has been demonstrated on left ventricular hypertrophy
