Trial Outcomes & Findings for Efficacy and Safety of Azilsartan Medoxomil Co-Administered With Chlorthalidone in Participants With Essential Hypertension (NCT NCT00591773)

NCT ID: NCT00591773

Last Updated: 2011-04-19

Results Overview

The change in 24-hour mean systolic blood pressure measured at week 6 relative to baseline. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring measures blood pressure at regular intervals throughout the day and night. The 24-hour mean is the average of all measurements recorded for 24 hours after dosing.
