Combination of Perindopril arginine (ACE inhibitor) and Amlodipine (calcium channel antagonist) used as an antihypertensive drug and for improving the prognosis of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). The interest of fixed-combination perindopril/amlodipine came from the results of ASCOT trial, the first trial with a comparison of antihypertensive regimens including two drugs in each arm: perindopril+amlodipine vs. atenolol+a diuretic.
