- Abstract
Undiagnosed or inadequately controlled arterial hypertension (AH) is the leading independent factor of cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality. In addition, the grouping of multiple risk factors in patients with AH contributes to the severity of this “silent but deadly” disease. Assessment of the total CV risk and treatment of each possible risk factor are extremely important in reducing the total CV risk. The use of fixed-dose combinations of medicinal products with good pharmacodynamic, pharmacokinetic, metabolic, and safety profiles has been proven to simplify the treatment and improve the outcomes and adherence of patients, which must be lifelong. One such combination that contains a long-acting ACE inhibitor – perindopril, a metabolically neutral long-acting diuretic from the thiazide class – indapamide, and a potent statin – rosuvastatin, is the fixed-dose combination Roxiper® – a triple combination for two diseases in a single tablet.
