Abstract
Dementia is an increasingly common problem affecting Polish society. Both epidemiological and prospective studies demonstrated that long-standing hypertension can lead to impaired cognitive function and development of symptoms of dementia. Based on previous research we can suppose that effective antihypertensive therapy significantly reduces the risk of these changes in patients with hypertension. At the same time it should be emphasized that the cognitive impairment that coexists with hypertension can significantly impair cooperation with the patient, leading to ineffective antihypertensive therapy and increasing the risk of many complications. Vinpocetine can play an important role in the treatment of such a patient, resulting in improvement in cognitive function.
