Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To evaluate the change from baseline in office DBP measurements by cuff assessments after 6 weeks of treatment

    Measured: 6 weeks from baseline

  2. To evaluate the percentage of subjects who achieve BP goal as measured by cuff assessments (<140/90 mmHg) after 6 weeks of treatment

    Measured: 6 weeks from baseline
