Eighteen patients with a mean age of 54.7 years were included in the study. All patients had a diagnosis of mild or moderate essential hypertension (sitting diastolic blood pressure of 96 to 114 mm Hg). The study design was single blind and in two phases: phase I, placebo (4 weeks), and phase II, the active treatment (8 weeks) with increasing doses, if needed, of doxazosin every 2 weeks (1, 2, 4, and 8 mg/day). Results show that doxazosin has an antihypertensive effect that is dose dependent… CONTINUE READING
