Title: [The combination of methyldopa with pindolol in the treatment of hypertension (author's transl)]. Author: Szám I, Pálossy B. Journal: MMW Munch Med Wochenschr; 1978 Dec 23; 120(51-52):1719-22. PubMed ID: 105251. Abstract: 32 patients with moderate or severe hypertension (16 men and 16 women, aged 32--75 years) were treated with alpha-methyldopa (daily dose: 750 mg) + placebo for 2 weeks, then with alpha-methyldopa + pindolol (15--45 mg daily) for 12 weeks. These patients had been under alpha-methyldopa monotherapy before the trial with unsatisfactory results. The simultaneous administration of alpha-methyldopa and pindolol considerably decreased the systolic and diastolic blood pressure, both sitting and standing, and the heart rate. The combination of methyldopa and pindolol was significantly more effective than methyldopa alone.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
