A double-blind, randomized, comparative study of nitrendipine and enalapril in elderly hypertensive patients.
1991
We conducted a randomized, double-blind, double-placebo study in two groups of elderly hypertensive patients aged over 60 years to compare nitrendipine to enalapril, given once daily over 4 months, as monotherapy with 20 mg tablets. Clinic blood pressure was measured monthly and 24 h ambulatory monitoring was obtained at day 0 and day 120. Fifty-two patients entered the study (22 in the nitrendipine group, 30 in the enalapril group); 4 patients in both groups were dropped from the study because they withdrew their consent to participate
