Which is the best treatment for hbp: exforge (amlodipine and valsartan) or diltiazem and lisinopril?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Everyone is diffrent: . The key is to get your patient to goal. If you can get the blood pressure to 130/80 or less with either program then it really doesnt matter. In my experience Exforge (amlodipine and valsartan) performs better but you have to taylor the meds to the pt.
