- Study Design
- Not specified
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method After 6 weeks therapy with a fixed combination of olmesartan and amlodipine compared to monotherapy with candesartan: change in ABPM mean daytime systolic values and change in systolic OPM. <br><br>ABPM measurements to be performed at the beginning and end of each intervention step.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method change in diastolic OPM, change in systolic and diastolic ABPM night mean values, 24 h mean values and diastolic day mean value. Distribution of patients over the four dipper types. Comparison of OPM and ABPM with regard to achievement of target bp values.
