Dose Titration of Lisinopril in Children Aged 1 to 18 Years With Primary or Secondary Hypertension (Lisi-ped)

September 18, 2018 updated by: University Ghent

Dose Titration Study to Test Efficacy and Safety of Lisinopril in Children Aged 1 to 18 Years With Primary or Secondary Hypertension.

This open label 4 month study will evaluate efficacy (blood pressure lowering effects) and safety of lisinopril in children 1-18y whose parents grant permission to participate. This dose titration study is being conducted to support the statement that personalized titration of lisinopril (based on blood pressure and renin-aldosterone ratio) can increase patient response.
