Announcement:
Increased blood pressure is the main factor of high risk of premature death, brain stroke, myocardial infarction and other cardiovascular complications.
The most vulnerable blending organ with arterial hypertension is the brain.
The clinical manifestation of brain damage, the target organ of hypertension, is cognitive impairment, such as memory and attention deficits. Thus, cognitive impairment is caused by hypertension. To optimize antihypertensive therapy, in addition to standard medications, it is necessary to include neurometabolic agents, preferably those that deliver multiple effects in a single tablet. Mexidol® is such a drug.It has a membrane-stabilizing and antioxidant effect and improves cerebral perfusion, which is extremely important in hypertension. Proper standard therapy and the right adjunctive medication with a multimodal mechanism of action ensure maximum improvement in cognitive function and, consequently, in patients' quality of life.
