Abstract
Arterial hypertension is a complex disease. Physician needs to consider many issues before prescribing medicines, including coexistence of other chronic diseases and organ damages. Also to make pharmacotherapy more effective physician should remember about compliance. The easier is the pattern of drug taking, the higher is the compliance. In many patients combination of valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide can be very effective in reducing blood pressure. Authors of this article shortly discuss the most important clinical studies concerned with the role of valsartan and valsartan with hydrochlorothiazide in therapy of arterial hypertension.
