Background. The purpose of the study was to calculate the cost of lowering blood pressure (BP) in the complex antihypertensive therapy of arterial hypertension (AH) with and without Cholecalciferol. Materials and methods. 154 patients with grade II AH were divided into the AH(+)CH group recei ving combined antihypertensive therapy plus Cholecalciferol in a dose of 2000 IU / day and into the comparison group  — AH(–)CH. Office BP and total Vitamin D levels were measured. The costs of medication were calculated. Results. Du ring the follow­up examination, the blood level of Vtamin D increased; in the AH(+)CH group getting higher (p = 0.1) than in the AH(–)CH group. The per capita cost of medication in the AH(+)CH group was higher than in the AH(–)CH group ($ 106.8 and $91.5, respectively); however, the cost of SBP reduction by 1 mmHg in the AH(+) CH group was $ 3.9 lower than in the AH(–)CH group. The Cholecalciferol dose of 2000 IU/day for 3 months results in an optimum level of Vitamin D for 83 % cases, irrespective of antihypertensive therapy. The Cholecalciferol dose of 2000 IU/day from 6.5 to 12 months results in an optimum level of Vitamin D for 100 % cases. The greatest dynamics of increase in the level of 25(OH)D achieved in response to taking cholecalciferol occurs when its initial le­ vel is < 20 ng/ml. Conclusions. The economic costs of reducing SBP, with a more frequent achievement of its target values, were the lowest in combination therapy with Cholecalciferol, especially in combination with a diuretic. In addition, with complex therapy, we received not only a correction of blood pressure, but also of the Vitamin D status.

Economic justification of blood pressure lowering costs in the complex therapy of arterial hypertension with Cholecalciferol supplementation
