Olmesartan medoxomil‐based treatment algorithm. Treatment was initiated with olmesartan medoxomil 20 mg/d. If the target blood pressure (BP) of ≤130/85 mm Hg was not achieved at 4 weeks, olmesartan medoxomil was titrated to 40 mg/d. Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) or amlodipine besylate could be added as needed, beginning at 8 weeks and then every 4 weeks thereafter, until goal BP was achieved.
