The paper presents the results of a follow-up and treatment of 30 patients with arterial hypertension (AH) accompanied by the persistent blood pressure elevation that requires continuous antihypertensive therapy and that is associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It shows the antihypersensive effect of the imidazoline-receptor agonist moxonidine and its positive action on metabolic parameters and a risk for cardiovascular events in this group of patients.
