Abstract:
After 7 years of treatment with 20 mg of enalapril twice daily, regression of the initial left ventricular hypertrophy in a group of 24 patients with essential arterial hypertension was achieved: gradual reduction in the dosage to 10 or 5 mg twice daily caused no worsening of either blood pressure or ventricular structure or function.
