The most pressing issues of the secondary drug prevention of the most common cardiovascular diseases are focused. These are arterial hypertension, stable ischemic heart disease, chronicheart failure.

Освещаются актуальные вопросы вторичной медикаментозной профилактики наиболее распространенных сердечно-сосудистых заболеваний: артериальной гипертензии, стабильной ишемической болезни сердца, хронической сердечной недостаточности.
