Prestans is a drug of a combination of amlodipine and perindopril, used for the treatment of primary and secondary hypertension, angina pectoris, chronic ischemic heart disease. Prestans refers to ACE inhibitors in combinations and calcium channel blockers in combinations.
Pharmacological action Prestans
Prestans consists of two active active components of different directions - antianginal and antihypertensive. The action of each component separately and the drug as a whole is considered.
Perindopril in Prestans inhibits kininase II, an enzyme that converts angiotensin I to vasoconstrictor angiotensin II and destroys vasodilating bradykinin to an inactive heptapeptide.
By inactivating bradykinin, ACE increases the activity of not only the circulating, but also the tissue kinin-kallikrein system, simultaneously with the activation of the prostaglandin system.
The therapeutic effect of perindopril is due to the inhibition of ACE by the active metabolite perindoprilat. Prestans is used to treat arterial hypertension of any degree of complexity. Its use helps to reduce diastolic and systolic blood pressure, both in the supine position and in the standing position. By decreasing the OPSS, perindopril improves peripheral blood flow, lowers blood pressure without affecting heart rate. By increasing renal blood flow, the drug does not alter the glomerular filtration rate.
Perindopril in Prestans dilates blood vessels, restores the elasticity of large arteries and the structure of the vascular walls of small arteries, reduces left ventricular hypertrophy.
After a single dose, the maximum antihypertensive effect is achieved in 4-6 hours and lasts 24 hours. Reducing blood pressure very quickly, the drug with a sufficiently high efficiency continues to act 24 hours after administration.
Less than a month after the start of taking Prestans, a therapeutic effect occurs. The drug does not cause dependence, discontinuation of use is not accompanied by a withdrawal syndrome.
A decrease in mortality due to diseases of the cardiovascular system and a significant decrease in the incidence of complications when taking perindopril have been confirmed.
Amlodipine in Prestans blocks the slow calcium channels of dihydropyridine derivatives groups. At the level of dihydropyridine receptors, it prevents the flow of calcium ions to the smooth muscle cells of the vessels and myocardium. The antihypertensive effect of amlodipine is prolonged and dose-dependent. By relaxing the smooth muscles of the vessels, it helps to expand:
- Main coronary arteries and arterioles (including in the areas of the myocardium affected by ischemia);
- Peripheral arterioles.
The effect of amlodipine in Prestans on the atrioventricular and sinus nodes is weak, the slowdown of AV conduction is insignificant. Reducing platelet aggregation increases the rate of glomerular filtration, accelerates sodium excretion and diuresis. As a result of the prolonged effect, blood pressure decreases smoothly, reflex stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system is minimal. In hypertension, the degree of hypertrophic changes in the left ventricular myocardium is significantly reduced.
With angina pectoris, a single daily dose of amlodipine in Prestans allows you to increase the total time of physical activity, delay the onset of angina attacks, reducing their frequency, as a result of which to reduce the dose of nitroglycerin consumed.
With arterial hypertension, a single daily dose of the drug will provide a significant decrease in blood pressure for 24 hours in the standing and lying position, without causing acute hypotension due to the slow onset of action.
The absence of a negative effect on the level of lipids in blood plasma and metabolism has been proven, which allows prescribing the drug to patients in the case of bronchial asthma, diabetes mellitus and gout.
Prestans - a combination of perindopril and amlodipine, helps to reduce:
- The frequency of angina attacks;
- The risk of developing a heart attack;
- Cardiovascular mortality.
Release form Prestans
