Hemorheological parameters in hypertensive patients in the dynamics of Corinfar treatment

Calcium antagonists, in particular corinfar, are powerful arteriodilator drugs that have been successfully used recently in the treatment of arterial hypertension. It is known that changes in rheological properties of blood lead to circulatory disturbances in the smallest blood vessels. There are separate reports about the effect of corinthar on blood rheology parameters in patients with angina pectoris. We have not found any works about the effect of corinthar on blood rheological parameters in hypertensive patients in the available literature. Therefore, in the present study we made an attempt to study the effect of the drug on hemorheological parameters in patients with Stage II hypertension during a course of treatment.
