Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The majority of hypertensive patients require antihypertensive associations to control their blood pressure. Most of clinical trials don't compare different associations using Hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg as the standard initial therapy and compare the associations using doses that are not equivalent.

This randomized trial where patients and investigators are blinded and compares the effectiveness two associations: Hydrochlorothiazide and Amiloride and Hydrochlorothiazide and Enalapril.
