Aim - to assess the effect of different dosing regimens for combined antihypertensive therapy with the use of ACE inhibitor zofenopril or angiotensin II receptor blocker valsartan on the blood pressure (BP) profile in men and women with arterial hypertension (AH) and stable coronary heart disease (CHD). Materials and methods. 198 patients (98 men and 100 women) with AH and stable CHD (stable angina of II functional class) were examined. In men and women, the effectiveness of 3 variants of antihypertensive therapy was evaluated: a combination of metoprolol succinate/hydrochlorothiazide + zofenopril or valsartan 160 mg once or valsartan 80 mg 2 times/day.
