Combined Medication To Treat Blood Pressure
Friday, July 28, 2006
New blood pressure drug choices
One Pill for All Ills !
A german / italian based drug manufacturer has launched a new combination pill for high blood pressure treatment.
The new combined drug contains a combination of both an ACE inhibitor type drug and a calcium channel blocker drug.
Most high blood pressure patients now need more than one type of medication to keep their blood pressure at desired levels. This is especially true for those people with other associated diseases or risk factors
Some doctors believe that fixed combinations of more than one high blood pressure drug in the one tablet or capsule will play an increasing role in the future of high blood pressure treatment.
The advantages of fixed combinations instead of giving separate treatments might be significant for some patients. The combined dosages of the drugs are those broadly used by the physician and their effectiveness has been previously proven in clinical trials.
The manufacturers hope that the reduction of the number of pills that people take might make them nore likely to take them.
This kind of compliance with blood pressure treatment is extremely important in chronic treatments aimed at reducing and preventing cardiovascular risk.
