Abstract

Arterial hypertension (AH) is one of the most important problems of the modern medicine, due to its exceptionally high prevalence. This study focused on effectiveness and safety of the diuretic-based combination therapy among patients aged >18 years (1476 men and 2989 women) with a clinical diagnosis of Stage 1–3 AH. All patients received fixed-dose combination therapy with atenolol and chlorthalidone. The findings from the TRUST study have confirmed safety and effectiveness of the fixed-dose combination of atenolol and chlorthalidone.
