Study Overview

Brief Summary

This multicentric, open label, Randomized, Comparative clinical trial is planned to assess efficacy and safety of FDC of S - Amlodipine besilate (2.5/5 mg), Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5/25 mg and Olmesartan 40 mg Tablet. Patient satisfying inclusion and exclusion criteria will receive either test or Reference drug as per Randomization.In test group at screening visit  patient will start with FDC of S-Amlodipine 2.5 mg, Hydrocholorothiazide 12.5 mg and Olmesartan 40mg one tablet once daily for first 4 weeks and in subsequent visit if BP >140/90 mm of Hg then dose of FDC will increased upto S-Amlodipine 5mg + Olmesartan 40 mg + Hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg once daily upto 12 weeks. If dose doesnot modified same dose will continue.In Reference group initially patient will start with FDC of Amlodipine 25mg with Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg one tablet once daily with Olmesartan 40 mg one tablet once daily. In subsequent visit if  BP>140/90 mm of Hg then this dose will increase upto FDC of Amlodipine 25mg + Hydrocholorthiazide 12.5 mg two tablets once daily along with Olmesartan 40 mg one tablet once daily.Baseline laboratory investigations will be done. Patients will be evaluated for efficacy and safety variables after 4, 8 and 12 weeks of therapy. Same laboratory investigations will be repeated after 12 weeks of therapy except ECG.The study duration is of 12 weeks
