ABSTRACT
Hypertension is a global public health problem and causes target organ damage. It may cause an increase in mortality and morbidity due to the target organ damage it causes. Although it is sometimes difficult to regulate blood pressure in HT treatment, patients often do not respond to monotherapy, so double or triple combination therapy is needed can be heard. In this case, the effect of combination therapy in a hypertensive patient with coronary artery disease is presented.
