Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Mean Trough Sitting Diastolic Blood Pressure8 weeks

Change in mean trough sitting diastolic Blood Pressure between OM/HCTZ 20/25 mg vs. 40/25 mg, in those patients inadequately controlled on OM 40 mg monotherapy, after eight weeks of double blind treatment, as compared to baseline.

Change = Week 16 - Week 8 (baseline).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Mean Trough Sitting Diastolic Blood Pressure From Week 8(Baseline) to Week 124 weeks

Change = Week 12 - Week 8 (baseline).

Change in Sitting Systolic Blood Pressure 4 Weeks and 8 Weeks After Baseline.8 weeks

4 weeks Change = Week 12 - Week 8 (baseline). 8 weeks Change = Week 16 - Week 8 (baseline).

Change in Daytime, Nighttime and 24-hour Blood Pressure Evaluated by Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring 8 Weeks After Baseline.8 weeks

Change = Week 16 - Week 8 (baseline).
