    Abstract:
    Arterial hypertension is the most common risk factor in patients with metabolic disorders. In the selection of antihypertensive therapy it is necessary to consider not only the anti-hypertensive and organoprotective effects of drugs and their metabolic effects, which has prognostic value. Calcium antaginists, along. Lercanidipine related to the third generation dihydripyridine calcium antagonist, has been much more selective for the so-called slow calcium channels of vascular smooth muscle cells, which is associated with a good hypertensive, organo and metabolic action. Combination therapy with an ACE inhibitor and a calcium channel blocker is also a justified tactic for the management of patients with high-risk cardiovascular and metabolic disorders. Attention is paid new fixed combinations, including angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and calcium antagonists.
