Brief Summary

This study is a randomized, parallel-group, open-label study with two study treatment groups: Group A (Moxonidine tablets–(0.2 mg and/or 0.3 mg tablets)– and Group B (FDC tablet of Amlodipine 5 mg +Telmisartan 40 mg + Chlorthalidone 12.5 mg). The total enrolled sample size will be 40 patients. The patients will be assigned treatment from anyone group–Group A or Group B as per a predetermined randomization schedule in a 1:1 ratio. The randomization schedule will be generated by a statistician using the SAS program. Primary Efficacy Objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of investigational products in patients with uncontrolled hypertension on Day 57 (±4 days) of treatment as assessed by change from baseline in sitting SBP and DBP. The study will be conducted at one study site. The total study duration per patient is approx two months & there will be a total of five visits–four study site visits (Visit 1 to Visit 4) and one telephonic safety visit (Visit 5). Telephonic contacts will also be conducted during the first seven days of the treatment period and on Day 14 (±2 days) and Day 35 (±2 days) during the treatment period.
