32 Conclusion Arterial hypertension is one of the major noncommunicable causes of mortality and morbidity in sub-saharian Africa The therapeutic approach of arterial hypertension in patients of sub-saharian origin should include a diuretic and a calcium-channel blocker either alone or in association Amlodipine/indapamide (Natrixam) is effective and safe in all hypertensive patients and should represent the treatment of choice for sub-saharian patients with arterial hypertension 32
