Description
Selma Siham El Khayat and co-authors track a two-drug plan for high blood pressure in Morocco in a 2025 study. Many patients stay above target on one drug alone. The plan adds perindopril arginine to amlodipine, which patients were already taking without reaching control. The study enrolled 1,614 patients across many centers and followed them for ninety days.
Average top pressure fell from about 171 to about 129, and bottom pressure fell by a clear margin too. The share of patients at target rose from sixty percent at day thirty to over ninety percent at day ninety. Side effects were rare and grew rarer over time, and none were serious. The authors present the pairing as a workable route for patients stuck on one drug.
