ABSTRACT
Objective :To analyze therapeutic effect of different dose of simvastatin on hypertension complicated hy‐perlipidemia and its safety .Methods :A total of 90 patients with hypertension complicated hyperlipidemia treated in our hospital were randomly and equally divided into simvastatin routine dose group (20mg／d simvastatin) and high dose group (40mg／d simvastatin) ,both groups were treated for six months .Therapeutic effect ,levels of blood pressure (BP) and blood lipids before and after treatment ,and incidence of adverse reactions were compared between two groups .Results :Compared with routine dose group after treatment , there were significant rise in total effective rates of hypertension (75.56% vs.93.33%) and hyperlipidemia (71.11% vs.95.56%) in high dose group ,P＝0.020 ,0.002 ;Compared with routine dose group after treatment ,there were significant reductions in levels of serum TC [ (5.68 ± 0.68) mmol／L vs. (4.07 ± 0.62) mmol／L] ,TG [(1.89 ± 0.37) mmol／L vs.(1.03 ± 0.31) mmol／L] ,LDL‐C [ (3.59 ± 0.74) mmol／L vs. (2.12 ± 0.69) mmol／L] and blood pressure [ (134.84 ± 11.92)／(90.96 ± 8.79) mmHg vs.(120.09 ± 11.43)／(81.78 ± 8.57) mmHg] ,and significant rise in serum HDL‐C level [ (1.28 ± 0.41) mmol／L vs.(1.48 ± 0.46) mmol／L] in high dose group , P＜0.05 or ＜0.01. There was no significant difference in incidence rate of adverse reactions between two groups (P＝0.535).Conclusion :High dose simvastatin possesses more significant therapeutic effect on hypertension compli‐cated hyperlipidemia .It can significantly reduce BP and blood lipids with good safety .
