“…This study, for the first time, demonstrates that an SPC of cilnidipine, a unique L‐/N‐type CCB, and valsartan lowered MHBP and MHPP progressively and for a longer period in patients with uncontrolled hypertension, especially those with increased MHPR, than in those without increased MHPR. These findings were more evident, especially in the patients with wide MHPP, which suggested that the preserved sympatholytic characteristics of cilnidipine in the SPC of Cil/Val would be clinically more effective for the reduction of MHBP and arterial stiffness in patients with uncontrolled hypertension with stiffened arteries and sympathetic hyperactivity.…”

“…Blockade of entry of Ca+2 leads to inhibition of vasoconstriction cascade, eventually resulting in vasodilatation. It helps to decrease peripheral resistance and, therefore, blood pressure [9,10]. It also acts on N-type calcium channels present at the neuronal terminals [11].…”

“…National and international guidelines recommend angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), calcium channel blockers (CCBs), diuretics, and beta-blockers for the management of hypertension. CCBs are among the most used antihypertensive medications currently in the market, and the use of CCBs is especially effective for the treatment of hypertension in the elderly who frequently have large-vessel stiffness [ 2 ].…”
