Description

In 1956, Freis and a group of physicians in several Veterans Administration hospitals organized a cooperative study group to evaluate antihypertensive agents under well-controlled conditions. In this second of three articles, they confirmed some of the general findings of the first report, that a regimen of reserpine (a ganglionic-blocking agent) combined with hydralazine (a vasodilator) produced far better results than the use of ganglionic-blocking... agents alone.
