Study aim was assessment of clinical efficacy of mono therapy with nifedipine SR/GITS and combination of nifedipine SR/GITS and bisoprolol as well as investigation of functional state of sympathoadrenal system (SAS) in pregnant women with arterial hypertension. Examination and treatment with nifedipine SR/GITS 30 mg/day and bisoprolol 2,5 - 5 mg/day was carried out in 21 patients with stage II hypertensive disease (HD) during trimester II of pregnancy. Initially all women including 20 practically healthy pregnant women (control group) had elevation of functional activity of SAS what was determined by high values of b-adrenoception of membranes of erythrocytes. In patients with stage II HD this parameter significantly exceeded that of control group. Administration of antihypertensive drugs for 3 weeks promoted significant lowering of all parameters of 24 hour blood pressure monitoring down to optimal level, lessening of pathological types of 24 hour blood pressure profile and lowering of functional activity of SAS.
