Prevention, detection, and treatment of high blood pressure remain an important public health challenge. There is convincing evidence that heart rate is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Recommendations for the resting heart rate measurement are roughly the same as those used for blood pressure measurement which is usually made during the same session. Across different parts of the cardiovascular disease continuum, different heart rate thresholds are identified. Elevated heart rate identifies patients with hypertension at high cardiovascular risk. One of the important causes of inadequate blood pressure control and at the same time heart rate control is the poor adherence of patients to treatment. It is necessary to individualize the treatment of patients with elevated heart rates throughout the cardiovascular continuum. Fixed-dose combination decreases the risk of medication non-compliance and should be considered in patients with chronic conditions like hypertension for improving medication compliance which can translate into better clinical outcomes.

Keywords: arterial hypertension, heart rate, fixed drug combinations, treatment adherence.
