Objective To investigate the efficacy of rosuvastatin on blood lipid and blood pressure in hypertensive patients in the conventional treatment.Method 86 cases of patients with hypertension were randomly divided into an observation group with 41 cases and a control group with 45 cases.Patients in the control group were taken oral irbesartan tablets 150 mg

once a day.Those in the observation group were taken oral rosuvastatin 5mg

once a day

on the basis of the control group.After two weeks

patients in both groups whose blood pressure were higher than 140/90mmHg（1 mmHg=0.133kPa）were added another antihypertensive drug according to their actual conditions.The changes of blood lipid and blood pressure in all the patients were compared after three-month treatment.Results After the treatment

levels of blood pressure

total cholesterol（TC）

triglyceride（TG）

low density lipoprotein cholesterol（LDL-C）in both groups were lower than pretreatment

and the differences were statistically significant（P<0.05）;all the indicators from the observation group were lower than the control group and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant（P<0.05）.Conclusion The application of rosuvastatin in the conventional treatment of hypertension can enhance the clinical efficacy and improve levels of blood pressure and blood lipid in patients.
