Objective To investigate the effects of comprehensive prevention and control measures on the therapeutic efficient and pharmacoeconomics in community hypertension patients. Methods 2383 cases of hypertension were collected from July 2012 to July 2013 in the tertiary and community hospitals in Guangzhou, which were randomly divided into general therapy group, in which the patients were treated by general administration of drugs, and comprehensive management group that the patients were visited regularly. The sources of drugs, drugs use and changes in drugs were investigated. Results Compared with the general therapy group, better treatment effects were achieved in the comprehensive group. The apparent efficiency and total efficiency were both increased in the comprehensive group[(60.71% vs 46.01%); (90.20% vs 71.06%), P＜0.001]. Although the therapy and pharmacy fees were slightly increased in the comprehensive group as compared to the control group (t=16.186, P＜0.001), the outpatient expenses,hospitalization expenses, nursing expenses and the total expenses were decreased(t=25.647; t=35.785; t=22.274;t=73.710;P＜0.001). Considering reducing the use of drugs and decreasing the cost, the method of using single drug is beneficial to the patients of low-risk mild hypertension. The method of using calcium antagonist is the most economical and reasonable way. Conclusion Standardizing management of hypertension in community is effective in improving hypertension treatment and decreasing the cost, which is thus worth popularizing.
