Abstract
1 A small dose of prazosin was added to the treatment regime of sixteen hypertensive patients poorly controlled on a combination of bendrofluazide, hydralazine and propranolol. 2 There was a significant improvement in blood pressure control in all patients at 1 month (P less than 0.01) and this was maintained at 9 months (P less than 0.02). Tolerance to prazosin was not a problem. 3 The addition of prazosin to conventional triple drug therapy produces a further useful fall in blood pressure.
