Aim. To compare the effectiveness of telmisartan and perindopril in the treatment of elderly patients with arterial hypertension (AH) and metabolic syndrome (MS) who have suffered ischemic stroke (IS).Material and methods. 92 elderly patients with AH and MS who underwent IS (mean 68±4 years) were examined. Patients were randomly divided into pharmacotherapy groups: 47 patients took telmisartan (80 mg/day) and 45 — perindopril (10 mg/day). Fasting plasma glucose levels, insulin, leptin, total cholesterol, triglycerides, highand lowdensity lipoprotein cholesterol were determined, the HOMA-IR index was calculated, and daily monitoring was performed. Statistical processing was carried out using STATISTICA 10,0. The indicators are presented in the form of the median, interquartile ranges of Me (Q25%; Q75%), and mean ±SD. The comparison was carried out using the Wilcoxon rank criterion. The differences are significant at p
