The rise in age-adjusted mortality rates from hypertension and hypertensive diseases over
the last several years suggests that hypertension is one of the main risk factors for heart disease. As a
result, managing hypertension, both via preventive and therapeutic medicine, involves a heavy socioeconomic
burden. This review paper's objective is to summarize information on chronotherapy techniques,
which can make it possible for an active component to be distributed predictably and at a pace
that may also minimize the patient’s illness symptoms. To incorporate published research and review
papers, a comprehensive review of the literature from many sources during the past 25 years was
conducted. This paper summarizes the principle and method of the chronotherapy technique. The
review also throws light on different approaches that could be used to meet the need for medication
for the hypertensive patient according to the circadian cycle. From the study, it was concluded that
different formulation approaches are there that can work according to the principle of chronotherapy
with improvement in drug bioavailability and patient compliance. To encourage future researchers to
include chronotherapy in the creation of additional formulations, this review study intends to shed
light on various benefits and methods of chronotherapy.
