Brief summary
Randomized comparison of bisoprolol 2.5 mg monotherapy with fix combination drug valsartan 80 mg- amlodipine 5 mg
Detailed description
In this randomized, triple-blind, two-arm clinical trial, 59 adults aged 18-60 years with newly diagnosed stage 1-2 hypertension were assigned to bisoprolol 2.5 mg once daily (n=30) or a valsartan 80 mg + amlodipine 5 mg single-pill combination (n=29) for two months. Blood pressure was assessed using 24-hour ambulatory monitoring at baseline and after treatment. Statistical analysis included paired t-tests, ANOVA, and nonparametric methods, with significance set at p\<0.05.
Interventions
Newly diagnosed hypertensives, proved by 24 hours holter monitoring, receiving tablet bisoprolol
Newly diagnosed hypertensives, proved by 24 hours holter monitoring, receiving tablet valsartan-amlodipine fix combination pill
