- Conditions
- Hypertension
- Registration Number
- CTRI/2008/091/000190
- Lead Sponsor
- AstraZeneca
- Brief Summary
This is a randomised, open-label; parallel group, multicentric study comparing the efficacy and safety of fixed-dose-combinations of Metoprolol XL plus Amlodipine with individual components of the combination. SelomaxTM50/5 will also be compared with SelomaxTM 25/2.5 in lowering of BP (SBP and DBP) in Indian patients with essential hypertension.Male and female patients of essential hypertension aged between 18-80 years will be studied. The patients should not have a history of prior cardiovascular disease. The outcomes are BP lowering and the tolerability of the fixed dose combinations compared to the individual comparators.
