Objectives

Narrative objectives1

Olmesartan medoxomil is the well-known strongest angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), which ameliorates circadian rhythm of blood pressure (BP) most preferably. Recently, azilsartan, which is proposed to be strangest ARB, became to be available. However, it is unclear which of the ARBs have a greater effect to decrease early morning BP. Thus, to clarify the question, the present study was planned.

(2) Standard deviation of early morning BP.
(3) Twenty-four hours ambulatory BP measurent (if possible)
(4) Office BP

Medicine

Interventions/Control_1

Twenty mg/day of olmesartan medoxomil is given instead of pre-administered ARB. Duration of the treatment is 12-14 weeks. Olmesartan medoxomil can be arranged up to maximum dose (40mg/day) until office BP is decreased to lower than 140/90 mmHg.

Interventions/Control_2

Twenty mg/day of azilsartan is given instead of pre-administered ARB. Duration of the treatment is 12-14 weeks. Azilsartan can be arranged up to maximum dose (40mg/day) until office BP is decreased to lower than 140/90 mmHg.

Results

Hypertensive patients were received 23.5+/-7.6 mg/day of olmesartan medoxomil (n=53) or 24.3+/-8.3 mg/day of azilsartan (n=61). The depressor effects between olmesartan medoxomil and azilsartan were not different; The office BP was decreased similarly (from 146.4+/-11.6/81.0+/-10.5, 147.6+/-12.1/81.9+/-11.3 mmHg to 139.6+/-14.7/79.1+/-10.1, 140.4+/-12.6/78.7+/-10.5 mmHg) and morning home BP was not significantly changed (from 135.4+/-12.1/77.7+/-10.4, 139.5+/-13.3/80.6+/-10.1 to 135.6+/-14.1/77.7+/-10.2, 137.3+/-11.9/79.5+/-9.4 mmHg). SD of morning diastolic and mean BP tended to decrease with olmesartan medoxomil but not with azilsartan, and these decreases were marginally or significantly greater in olmesartan medoxomil arm. The changes on serum Na, uric acid, and Cr, eGFR, and urinary protein/Cr ratio were almost similar. However, azilsartan significantly increased serum K but olmesartan medoxomil did not. Antihypertensive potency was not different between olmesartan medoxomil and azilsartan. Although there may be slight difference in the effects between the two ARBs, the further studies are required to clarify their clinical implications.
