Overview

Dyslipidemia is present in every other patient with arterial hypertension and is the most common additional risk factor. The evidence of the benefit of cholesterol lowering in hypertensive patients was provided by the ASCOT and HOPE-3 trials. Concurrent treatment of hypertension and dyslipidemia reduces the incidence of cardiovascular events significantly more than treating only one of these diseases. A mild long-term reduction in blood pressure and LDL cholesterol has a potential to significantly reduce the incidence of cardiovascular events. To ensure better adherence of patients to treatment and to achieve better control of risk factors, use of fixed combinations should be considered.

Key words:
arterial hypertension, dyslipidemia, fixed combinations, cardiovascular events, treatment
