Brief Summary

Study Plan Patients will be recruited based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. In case of uncontrolled hypertension with base line therapy of diuretics or calcium channel blockers ? 2 weeks ?washout period? would be allowed before initiating the patient on combination. Written ?Informed consent? will be obtained from these patients after a thorough explanation of the study. Each patient will receive copy of ?Informed consent? form and ?Patient information? sheet. Patients will be explained regarding benefits and side effects of the treatment as per the available Prescribing Information. At the first visit (Baseline), detailed history and examination of the patients will be performed. Patients BP, Health-related quality of life questionnaire, Symptom-Distress index for fatigue, headache and dizziness would be assessed. During the second visit (after 4 weeks), Patients BP, Health-related quality of life questionnaire, Symptom-Distress index for fatigue, headache and dizziness would be assessed along with Patient compliance and adverse events. If any adverse events have been reported then the information needs to be entered in the adverse event Initial Notification Form. During the Third visit (after 8 weeks), Patients BP, Health-related quality of life questionnaire, Symptom-Distress index for fatigue, headache and dizziness, Patient compliance and adverse events would be assessed along with Global assessment by Investigator and Patient. If any adverse events have been reported then the information needs to be entered in the Adverse event Initial Notification Form. Blood pressure monitoring: Each center will follow BP assessment with standardized mercury manometer or the calibrated android BP apparatus in the Sitting, Non-dominant arm, BP recording with 5 minutes rest in the sitting posture Average of 2 readings will be taken for baselines levels Simultaneously record pulse rate Record standing BP only in those with postural symptoms
