Popis: Aim. To evaluate the efficacy of long-term combined antihypertensive therapy (AHT) based on renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) blockers, indapamide and calcium channel blocker (CCB) in hypertensive patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) in accordance with target blood pressure (BP) 150 mm Hg (office) or >134 mmHg (ABPM). Marked beneficial effect on the morphological and functional characteristics of the vascular wall and its elastic properties, improvement of glycemic control, tissue insulin sensitivity and lipids profile were found. These effects were associated mainly with amlodipine inclusion into the therapy. Conclusion. The combined AHT based on RAAS blockers, indapamide SR and CCB provides achievement of target BP in the most of hypertensive patients with DM and accompanied by positive changes in vascular remodeling and metabolism.
