Meth ods : In HIGH (Hyzaar In Group of Hypertensive patients) study, patients diagnosed as hypertension were on losartan (50 mg)/ hydrochlorothiazide (12.5 mg) combined tablet (Hyzaar ) once daily for more than 8 weeks. Blood pressure was measured at least twice; prior to administering Hyzaar and 8 weeks after. Blood pressure at week 4 was also measured when possible. Adverse experience was investigated throughout and 14 days following the treatment. Re s ult s : A total of 2428 patients (male : female=4:6, mean age; ) were assessed. On week 8 of treatment, systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure measured were mmhg, mmhg, respectively. These denote 2.1 mmhg, 12.4 mmhg decrease from the baseline levels, respectively. After 8 weeks of treatment, blood pressure in 79% of patients either reached the goal (SBP<140 mmhg and DBP<90 mmhg) or was under control (reduction of diastolic blood pressure 10 mmhg). Gender, presence of diabetes mellitus, body mass index and co- medication of other antihypertensive agents did not affect the degree of blood pressure reduction by Hyzaar treatment. Decrease of diastolic blood pressure in younger age groups under 40 and years- old were significantly greater compared to that of elderly patients over 70 years- old (p <0.05, p <0.01, respectively). Greater decrease of blood pressure (p <0.001) was seen in patients with higher baseline blood pressure. Clinical adverse experience was seen in 26 patients (1.1%) and any specific adverse experience did not exceed 1%. Conclus ion : T reatment of losartan (50 mg)/ hydrochlorothiazide (12.5 mg) is highly effective in lowering blood pressure with few adverse experience in hypertension patients.(korean J Med 62:25-4, 2002) Key W ords : Hyzaar, Losartan, Angiotensin II receptor antagonist, Hypertension T M angiotensin II receptor (losartan) 50 mg (hydrochlorothiazide) 12.5 mg.
