Abstract :
[en] Early morning bood pressure (BP) surge and 24h mean BP are linked to target-organ damage and cardiovascular events. Antihypertensive agents should sustain BP control, particularly in the last 6h of the dosing interval or if dosing is missed. The efficacies of the long half-life telmisartan compared with shorter half-life valsartan in the last 6h of the dosing interval following active treatment and during 24h after a missed dose were compared.
