Description | The target values of blood pressure below 140/90 mmHg is still attained in only around 38% of treated patients. Monotherapy lowers diastolic blood pressure by 4-8 mmHg, and systolic blood pressure by 7-13 mmHg. Normalization is attained in about 50% of those treated. Combined therapy is much more effective, it lowers diastolic blood pressure by 7-14 mmHg, and systolic blood pressure by 12-22 mmHg. Normalization is attained in 80% of hypertonic patients. |
