Aim. To study a clinical equivalence of two medications of bisoprolol in patients with arterial hypertension (AH) 1-2 grades.Methods. Efficacy and tolerability of original (Concor, NYCOMED, Merck KGaA) and generic (Bisogamma, WORWAG PHARMA GmbH & Co) bisoprolol were investigated in open-label cross-over randomized comparative study. 32 patients (15 males and 17 females) with AH of 1 (66%) and 2 (34%) grades aged of 60 y.o. on average were involved. After 2 weeks of wash-out period original or generic bisoprolol 5 mg daily was prescribed. If necessary a dose of drug was doubled in two weeks. In patients with significant bradycardia (heart rate Results. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP, DBP) as well as heart rate (HR) were decreased significantly after two weeks of treatment with original bisoprolol (∆SBP=13.8±8.9, ∆DBP=8.5±8.6 mmHg and ∆HR=9.9±13.7 bp/min). Generic medication also significantly reduced SBP, DBP and HR (∆SBP=10.1±10.3, ∆DBP=7.1±7.2 mmHg and ∆HR=9.3±9.4 bp/min). Target SBP/DBP levels were achieved in 62.5%/71.9% of patients in Concor group and in 43.7%/62.5% of patients in Bisogamma group. There was a tendency to additional SBP decrease in patients treated with bisoprolol at a dose of 10 mg and with HCT in Concor group (–5.1±7.4 mmHg; pConclusion. Generic bisoprolol demonstrated lower antihypertensive efficacy and similar tolerability in comparison with original bisoprolol.
