ABSTRACT
The aim of this article is to summarize the evidence of an excellent therapeutic option
for the control of arterial hypertension, a review of the structure, in vitro effects
and experimental effects of azilsartan (AZL) is made. This information provides the
basic support to explain the excellent clinical results of azilsartan and azilsartan plus
chlorthalidone (AZL-CLD) both in the experimental phase III reviewed here, and in
real life in our Center, the experience of which will be reported in a descriptive way
with azilsartan and AZL-CLD.
