Participant Flow

The study enrolled 244 evaluable subjects. Drug treatments were used prior to the start of the study in all subjects in the Caduet and therapeutic lifestyle changes (TLC) group and the Norvasc and TLC group. Amlodipine was used by all subjects prior to entry. The study's four arms are two groups, each with drug group and matching placebo.
