ABSTRACT

The efficacy and safety of long-term treatment with oral nitrendipine were evaluated in 34 patients with essential arterial hypertension. Nitrendipine alone significantly lowered systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels in 28 patients who completed the preliminary four-week dose-setting phase. Twenty-one patients completed the one-year treatment. Blood pressure control was maintained by nitrendipine alone in 11 patients. Ten patients not adequately controlled at the end of the dose-setting phase were successfully treated with nitrendipine combined with acebutolol or muzolimine. It is concluded that nitrendipine is a promising calcium antagonist for the treatment of arterial hypertension.

ABSTRACT

An assessment was made of the efficacy of Sotalol, a beta1 selective beta blocker, in the management of essential arterial hypertension. A single 160 mg dose per diem was administered per os to 34 patients over a period of 14 weeks. Arterial pressure and heart rate were checked periodically. In addition, SAP, DAP and heart rate were evaluated before and during the third week of treatment in 8 subjects under maximum ergometric test conditions. Excellent tolerance was observed. Under basal conditions, all subjects displayed good reduction of SAP and DAP. This was highly significant. During exercise, it was less evident, and the results were only significant for low work loads. It is nevertheless felt that the simple dose protocol of the drug, its good tolerance and its effectiveness under basal conditions suggest that more extensive ergometric studies should be conducted.
