Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to compare the effect on systolic pressure of the 3 drugs given together in the cardiovascular combination pill (acetylsalicylic acid, simvastatin, and ramipril) to the effect on systolic pressure of ramipril given alone.
