EXPERIMENTALInterventions
4 mg/day, and was titrated, if necessary, to 8 mg/day at Week 3 (Visit 5) or Week 5 (Visit 6).
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Eligible subjects were males or females ≥18 years of age with a diagnosis of primary essential hypertension and currently taking 1 or 2 individual antihypertensive agents
- Dosing for entry antihypertensive medication was at the accepted efficacious dose or the maximum tolerated dose and had to be stable for at least 4 weeks prior to study entry
- Subjects were required to have clinic sitting DBP ≥95 and ≤110 mmHg and SBP ≥140 and ≤180 mmHg as an average of 3 readings on their current antihypertensive therapy at visits 1 and 2
You may not qualify if:
- Subjects taking antihypertensive medications for other indications (i.e. arrhythrma, unstable angina, CHF, etc.)
- Orthostatic hypotension, defined as a decrease of at least 20 mmHg systolic or 1OmmHg diastolic pressure between sitting and standing blood pressures after 2 rmnutes, or known fluid depletion.
