Abstract 410: Combination Therapy With Lercanidipine and Enalapril Improves Wave Reflection in Hypertensive Patients With Metabolic Sindrome [Poster Session II]

In conclusion, the addition of LER caused the same PWV reduction as compared to HCT but greater reduction in AI in hypertensive patients with metabolic syndrome not controlled with Enalapril alone. These results indicate a positive effect of the combination with LER on wave reflection, suggesting a potential role for cardiovascular protection.
