Popis: Aim. To evaluate antihypertensive efficacy of fixed combination: perindopril 4 mg/d plus indapamide 1.25 mg/d, and its influence on cardiovascular remodeling in untreated hypertensive patients. Material and methods. The study included 25 previously untreated patients with arterial hypertension (mean age 48.1±2,7 years; 13 males, 12 females). The effects of 6-month perindopril/indapamide combined therapy on daily blood pressure (BP), left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy, carotid intima-media thickness (IMT), pulse wave velocity (PWV), and cerebral blood flow velocity were investigated. Results. Target BP level was achieved in 77% of the patients. BP monitoring demonstrated significant reduction in systolic BP (daytime: -9.4%, p
