Abstract

Objective. To assess and compare efficacy of perindopril, eprosartan and amlodipine according to their effects on cognitive function in patients with arterial hypertension and obesity. Design and methods. This open clinical trial included 78 patients (mean age — 46,8 ± 5,5 years), 26 of them received perindopril, 26 — eprosartan, and 26 — amlodipine. Monotherapy has lasted for 12 months. At baseline and 12 months later, all participants underwent 24-hour blood pressure monitoring, neuropsychological testing and cognitive evoked potential (P300) to assess cognitive function. Results. Twelve-month monotherapy with eprosartan and amlodipine significantly improved cognitive function (neuropsychological testing and P300) in patients with obesity and arterial hypertension.
