    Abstract:
    The effect of an 8-week monotherapy with propranolol and pratsiol on plasma lipid levels and apo-Al and apo-B, apoproteins of high- and low-density lipoproteins (HDLP, LDLP) was studied in 20 patients with second-stage essential hypertension. Propranolol caused no significant changes in plasma lipid spectrum, however it produced a significant rise in apo-Al levels and reduced the cholesterol load index per weight unit of apo-Al in HDLP particles. Pratsiol treatment caused a significant reduction in plasma triglycerides, cholesterol of very-low-density lipoproteins, the cholesterol atherogenic coefficient and the apo-B/apo-Al ratio, and raised the level of HDLP cholesterol. The findings suggest that plasma lipoprotein effects should be taken into account in the choice of hypotensive agents.
