Article Synopsis
- About 70% of patients with high blood pressure require multiple medications for control, and a two-drug therapy is recommended for those with stage 2 hypertension.
- This study assessed the effectiveness and safety of a fixed-dose combination of trandolapril and verapamil in 40 Mexican patients who were not adequately managed on their existing single-drug treatment.
- Results indicated a significant reduction in blood pressure, with 75% of patients achieving their target levels, and the treatment was generally well-tolerated with minimal side effects.
Objective: To compare the effect of fixed-dose trandolapril-verapamil (FDTV) with that of trandolapril on proteinuria in normotensive, type 2 diabetic patients.
Research Design And Methods: A total of 60 normotensive, type 2 diabetic patients with 24-h proteinuria >300 mg were randomly assigned to two groups for open-label treatment. One group received 2 mg trandolapril/180 mg verapamil FDTV once daily; the other group received 2 mg trandolapril once daily.
