Active clinical trials for "Hypertension"

The goal of this study is to find out whether the plant compounds present in Hibiscus sabdariffa, a plant commonly used in herbal tea blends and other beverages, will have a beneficial effect on blood pressure in people with mildly elevated blood pressure.

This study will test the effectiveness and safety of a combination treatment in patients whose blood pressure is not controlled with a single medication

The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy, safety and tolerability of valsartan 80 mg (with a starting dose of 40 mg) to irbesartan 150 mg (with a starting dose of 75 mg) in patients on long-term haemodialysis with mild to moderate increased mean supine systolic blood pressure (MSSBP).

The purpose of this study is assess if treatment with valsartan and a diuretic, hydrochlorothiazide, has beneficial effects in people with high blood pressure, diabetes, and albuminuria (protein in the urine) compared with amlodipine. In particular, the study will assess whether the treatment will decrease the stiffness of the blood vessels.

To evaluate efficacy of the dual therapy of atorvastatin + amlodipine vs. amlodipine alone .

The primary objective of this study is to determine if trandolapril/verapamil (Tarka®) is superior to amlodipine/benazepril (Lotrel®) in reduction of albuminuria in hypertensive subjects with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and diabetic nephropathy

This study assesses the efficacy and safety of co-administration of olmesartan medoxomil plus amlodipine in mild to severe hypertensive patients older than 18 years of age

The aim of this study is to monitor long-term safety and tolerability of iloprost aerosol inhalation therapy in patients suffering from pulmonary hypertension.

This is a Phase III, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy of escitalopram (30 mg/day) in two parallel groups (randomization ratio, escitalopram 2/placebo 1).

This study examines the use of patient initiated discussions of blood pressure medication in the primary care setting. Additionally, this study examines different levels of patient incentive(s) to initiate discussions with providers including information only, information plus a financial incentive and reimbursement for 6 months of copay, and information/monetary incentive plus a reminder call prior to the index visit. Patient opinions about doctor/patient relationships will be assessed. Provider attitudes and prescribing behaviors will be analyzed as well.
