BACKGROUND
Yoga and Ayurveda texts emphasize the role of cleansing the bowel as an important component of management of hypertension (HTN). Observations during our clinical experience and pilot studies on Laghu shankha prakshalana kriya (LSP), a yogic bowel cleansing technique, appeared to be safe
The relationship between hypertension and emotional depression or anxiety has been long-argued. We assessed the efficacy of etizolam (an antianxiety drug) in 18 patients with essential hypertension accompanied with unspecified complaints. In the assessment of overall improvement, 4 patients (22.2%)
The nifedipine gastrointestinal therapeutic system (GITS) is a recently developed controlled-release formulation for once-a-day dosing. We evaluated the influence of morning versus evening administration of the drug in a randomized double-blind cross-over study including 15 essential hypertensives.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the cardiovascular response to postural challenge in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and to determine whether the degree of instability of the cardiovascular response may aid in diagnosing CFS.
METHODS
Patients with CFS (n = 25) and their age- and gender-matched
We compared the efficacy and safety of nitrendipine with that of hydralazine in 21 subjects with essential hypertension. Nitrendipine or hydralazine was given in a double-blind manner after a placebo period. Dose was titrated to diastolic blood pressure (BP) less than or equal to 90 mm Hg and the
The antihypertensive efficacy and side effects of a transdermal therapeutic system containing 2.5 mg clonidine (clonidine-TTS) was investigated in 21 patients with essential hypertension over a period of 10 weeks. The system was designed to release 0.1 mg clonidine/24 h. Mean systolic and diastolic
BACKGROUND
Angiotensin II acts at the cellular level through specific angiotensin II subtype I, AT-1 receptors. Losartan is the first of a new class of antihypertensive agents that specifically block angiotensin II at AT-1 receptors. By acting on complementary and different pharmacologic mechanisms,
Purine degradation occurs during strenuous muscle exercise and plasma levels of hypoxanthine (HX), purine degradation intermediate, increase. Purine nucleotide degradation has not been investigated in patients with essential hypertension (HTN). The present study determined whether purine nucleotide
This 56-week phase 3, open-label, treat-to-target study, involving 2 consecutive, non-randomized cohorts, evaluated the safety and tolerability of azilsartan medoxomil (AZL-M) in essential hypertension (mean baseline blood pressure [BP] 152/100 mmHg). All subjects (n = 669) initiated AZL-M 40 mg QD,
The study was designed to assess the antihypertensive effect of combined angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition and angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1) antagonism in patients with essential hypertension. Twenty patients with uncontrolled ambulatory diastolic blood pressure (BP) after 6
Valsartan competitively and selectively inhibits the actions of angiotensin II at the AT1 receptor subtype which is responsible for most of the known effects of angiotensin II. In clinical trials in patients with mild to moderate essential hypertension valsartan was as effective as losartan,
A randomised double blind parallel group study was performed to compare the efficacy and acceptability of slow release nifedipine (maximum dose 40 mg twice a day) with those of atenolol (maximum dose 100 mg once a day) as single agents for the treatment of essential hypertension. Of 410 patients
Labetalol, a new alpha- and beta-adrenergic blocking agent, was administered to 57 patients with essential hypertension whose standing diastolic blood pressure was 105 to 120 mm Hg after three and four weeks of placebo therapy and greater than 90 mm Hg after three to four weeks of therapy with
Nebivolol is a lipophilic beta1-blocker. It is devoid of intrinsic sympathomimetic or membrane stabilising activity but appears to have nitric oxide-mediated vasodilatory effects. Nebivolol is administered as a racemic mixture of equal proportions of d- and l-enantiomers. The drug does not
1. One hundred patients with severe essential hypertension have been treated with minoxidil for a mean period of 8-4 months in a study involving eleven European centres. Seventy-two males and twenty-eight females were included in the group; the mean age was 55 years and the initial supine systolic
