Inclusion criteria
* Those who are briefed about the clinical trial objectives and methods, and express their consent to participate in the trial by signing a written consent on the use of their personal information. * Patients diagnosed with essential hypertension and primary hypercholesterolemia. * Patients scheduled to receive either fimasartan plus atorvastatin or fimasartan plus atorvastatin plus ezetimibe.
Exclusion criteria
