Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Mean Arterial Pressure
Blood pressure was measured on the last day of each 7 day sodium diet for 24 hours using an ambulatory blood pressure monitor
24 hours
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Urinary Sodium Excretion
24 hour
Study Arms (4)
Celebrex; Low sodium
EXPERIMENTALSubject completes a normal sodium diet (3 days), a low salt diet (7 days), followed by a high salt diet (7 days) while taking a celebrex pill (100 mg twice a day for 17 day trial), randomized for trial order (drug versus placebo) and sodium diet order (low versus high sodium).
Celebrex, High Sodium
EXPERIMENTALSubject completes a normal sodium diet (3 days), a high salt diet (7 days), followed by a low salt diet (7 days) while taking a celebrex pill (100 mg twice a day for 17 day trial), randomized for trial order (drug versus placebo) and sodium diet order (low versus high sodium).
Placebo, Low Sodium
PLACEBO COMPARATORSubject completes a normal sodium diet (3 days), a low salt diet (7 days), followed by a high salt diet (7 days) while taking a placebo pill (twice a day for 17 day trial), randomized for trial order (drug versus placebo) and sodium diet order (low versus high sodium).
Placebo, High Sodium
PLACEBO COMPARATORSubject completes a normal sodium diet (3 days), a high salt diet (7 days), followed by a low salt diet (7 days) while taking a placebo pill (twice a day for 17 day trial), randomized for trial order (drug versus placebo) and sodium diet order (low versus high sodium).
Interventions
Celecoxib (Celebrex) was administered at 100 mg, twice per day for each day of sodium diet
Placebo pill taken twice per day on each day of the diet
