Group Assignment: QUARTET LDQT vs. Candesartan
variableRole: Exposure
comparatorCategory: Candesartan
observed: Group Assignment: Patients randomized to the intervention arm took a once daily ultra-low-dose quadruple combination therapy (QUARTET LDQT). The LDQT is an overencapsulated combination pill comprising four types of blood pressure lowering medications each at ¼ standard doses. QUARTET includes candesartan 2mg, amlodipine besylate 1.25mg, indapamide 0.625mg, and bisoprolol 2.5mg. The individual components are currently approved and marketed within the United States.
