Alpress LP allows a continuous flow of prazosin, thanks to its new galenic form. This implies a better efficacy and less side-effects in the treatment of hypertension. Besides, prazosin being known for its favourable effect on hypercholesterolemia, Alpress LP was studied in this respect. In each of the three studies detailed thereafter, concerning hypertensive patients, proof was made of the efficacy and the good tolerance of Alpress LP, as compared to reference therapeutics given in hypercholesterolemia.
