Brief summary

The purpose of this survey is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of long-term use of azilsartan tablets (Azilva Tablets) in patients with hypertension in a routine clinical setting.

Detailed description

This surveillance was designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of long-term use of azilsartan tablets (Azilva Tablets) in hypertensive patients in daily medical practice. The usual dosage for adult is 20 mg of azilsartan administered orally once daily. The dose can be adjusted according to the patient's age and condition. The maximum daily dose is 40 mg.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants Who Experience at Least One Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs)Up to 12 MonthsADRs are defined as adverse events (AEs) which are in the investigator's opinion of causal relationship to the study treatment. AEs are defined as any unfavorable and unintended signs, symptoms or diseases temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product reported from the first dose of study drug to the last dose of study drug.

Number of Participants Who Experience at Least One Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs)

ADRs are defined as adverse events (AEs) which are in the investigator's opinion of causal relationship to the study treatment. AEs are defined as any unfavorable and unintended signs, symptoms or diseases temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product reported from the first dose of study drug to the last dose of study drug.

Time frame: Up to 12 Months
