Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

In this study, Amlodipine has been used to study its effects in newly diagnosed hypertensive patients.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 4

Detailed Description

The incidence of hypertension is on the rise in developing countries like Pakistan. Different medications are used to decrease blood pressure with Amlodipine as one of the first-line drugs. It was proposed that due to interaction with calcium and thus luminal cholecystokinin releasing factor; Amlodipine might increase the cholesterol level and thus cause dyslipidemia.

Objective: In this regard, this study was conducted to look into the effects of Amlodipine in newly diagnosed cases of hypertension that had received no medication previously.

Methodology: Experimental study with a healthy control group with the sample size calculated out to be 80, comprising of an equal number of enrolment into case and control groups.
