RESUMEN
La prehipertensión es considerada un precursor del estadío 1 de hipertensión arterial y un predictor de riesgo cardiovascular excesivo. Es por esto que el Ensayo para Prevenir Hipertensión(TROPHY) investigó si el tratamiento farmacológico de la prehipertensión podría prevenir o posponer el desarrollo de hipertensión estadío 1. Los pacientes del TROPHY fueron asignados de manera randomizada en dos grupos, un o con candesartan y el otro placebo. Durante un periodo de cuatro años, el estadío 1 del hipertensión se desarrollo en un tercio de los pacientes del grupo placebo. El tratamiento de prehipertensión con candesartan parece ser bien tolerado y reduce el riesgo de hipertensión durante el periodo del estudio.
