    Abstract:
    A comparative study of changes in plasma lipids, apo-A1 and apo-B under the effect of 2-week, 2-month and 6-month treatments with hydrochlorothiazide and pratsiol was conducted in 48 patients with arterial hypertension. Hydrochlorothiazide caused a significant increase in total cholesterol (CH), LDL cholesterol, apo-A1 and apo-B, and a decrease in cholesterol load of HDL particles as compared to placebo effects. Increased levels of HDL cholesterol were only noted in the early days of hydrochlorothiazide treatment. Pratsiol therapy produced a significant reduction of total triglycerides (TG), VLDL cholesterol, the cholesterol atherogenic coefficient, the apo-B/apo-A1 ratio, and increased HDL cholesterol. The activity of post-heparin lipoprotein lipase was not basically affected by hydrochlorothiazide, while pratsiol evoked a significant increase in its activity. The pratsiol-associated TG decrease was more pronounced in patients with elevated TG baseline, and the rise in HDL cholesterol, in those with initial hypo-alphacholesterolemia. Therefore unlike hydrochlorothiazide, pratsiol is associated with a favorable antiatherogenic trend of changes in the lipoprotein spectrum.
