Abbreviations: AZL‐M/CLD, azilsartan medoxomil/chlorthalidone; OLM/HCTZ, olmesartan medoxomil/hydrochlorothiazide.

Experienced one or more creatinine elevation with a prespecified percentage ≥baseline and >upper limit of normal (ULN).

Two or more creatinine values that met the criteria at consecutive visits (may include final visit and unscheduled visits through 7 days after the last dose of study medication).

a

Primarily patients who resolved during follow‐up, but also patients who were considered resolved at final visit relative to screening values; all patients resolved to ≤0.2 mg/dL above the baseline or screening value.

Patient withdrew for personal reasons. Creatinine elevation at final visit with no follow‐up available.

b

Patients completed the study and had creatinine elevation at final visit but lost to follow‐up.

c

Patients had creatinine elevation at final visit but was subsequently discharged due to adverse event of renal cancer (1) and noncompliance (1).
