A method for controlling a brake pressure booster with hydraulic brake boosting wherein the activation of an additional pressure source takes place upon exceeding a specified brake cylinder pressure threshold value. The threshold value lying, between 50% and 100%, preferably between 70% and 80%, of a pressure limit value, from which the operating travel/brake pressure curve without additional brake pressure assistance has a knee point. Further upon exceeding a specified piston rod activation travel limit value, which lies at 20% to 100% of the available travel, preferably at 40% to 60% of the available travel. Furthermore, the speed of the vehicle, its lateral deceleration and its longitudinal deceleration can be used as criteria. Deactivation takes place on falling below a specified piston rod deactivation travel limit value. Based on selection of activation/deactivation criteria additional brake pressure boosting can be operationally during braking maneuvers.
