Background The purpose of the study was to evaluate the quality of life (QoL), tolerance and satisfaction with the therapy among hypertensive patients receiving amlodipine, which replaced nifedipine. Material and methods The study population consisted of 230 patients (121 men and 109 women) receiving short-acting nifedipine (mean dose 30,1 mg daily) for at least 3 months in mono- or polytherapy, with SBP not exceeding 180 mm Hg and DBP 105 mm Hg. Nifedipine was replaced with amlodipine in a dose of 5 mg daily — the treatment was continued for 12 weeks. In those patients in whom DBP > 90 mm Hg and/or SBP > 160 mm Hg was found at 6 weeks, the dose of amlodipine was increased to 10 mg daily. The quality of life was evaluated twice: befo...
