The achievement of target value of blood pressure in patients with arterial hypertension is crucial for reducing cardiovascular

mortality. Contemporary medicine, however, offers a modern combination of drugs that simplifies the treatment of hypertension.

Smaller amounts of tablets are better accepted by patient, there is better cooperation of active ingredients used, and therefore

greater treatment success. An example of a fixed combination of drugs is Triplixam.

Keywords: arterial hypertension, fixed combinations of drugs, Triplixam
