The baseline blood pressure was reduced from 171.2±3.2 to 137.1±2.6 in systolic blood pressure where as diastolic blood is reduced from 101.20±3.2 to 87.10±2.6 of patients using group D. The other group combinations also have slight changes in the reduction of blood pressure. The combination therapy shows greater efficacy in hypertensive patients. CONCLUSION: The percentage reduction of blood pressure after using group D was more than compared with other combinations.
