This RCT compares nifedipine GITS 30 mg twice daily versus 60 mg once daily in severe preeclampsia, finding similar blood pressure control but fewer emergent treatments with twice-daily dosing, informing safer antihypertensive strategies in
This multicenter randomized trial in India shows that three dual antihypertensive combinations—amlodipine-perindopril, perindopril-indapamide, and amlodipine-indapamide—are equally effective and well-tolerated for 24-hour blood pressure con
The large-scale COSMOS trial reveals that while long-term cocoa extract supplementation does not reduce overall incident hypertension in older adults, it significantly lowers risk among individuals with normal baseline systolic blood pressu
Isometric exercises, a form of static muscle engagement, can lower blood pressure as effectively as some medications, offering a simple, drug-free way to protect your heart and vessels.
TEAMLET trial reveals limited impact of EHR-pharmacy linked interventions on medication adherence in hypertension, highlighting complexity of adherence barriers and the need for multifaceted, patient-centered strategies.
