ETHANOL, ANHYDROUS for Hypertension

Inclusion criteria

• {"criterion_text":"- Prior to run-in period : Subject has provided written informed consent."}
• {"criterion_text":"- Prior to run-in period : Male or female subject, aged ≥18 and ≤80 years at time of enrollment."}
• {"criterion_text":"- Prior to run-in period : Subject is taking 2-5 antihypertensive medications (labeled for hypertension) at time of enrollment, and is willing to adhere to a stable (no change) medication regimen during the 4-week run-in period and 3 months post-procedure. Antihypertensive medications must be as follows: Two of the antihypertensive medications must be at least at 50% of their maximally labelled dose prior to the planned procedure; In subjects on 2 medications, one should be an ACE inhibitor or ARB, except where subjects have documented intolerance to each of these drug classes. All subjects must currently be taking, or have documentation that they failed or cannot tolerate, a diuretic. In the case of the thiazide agents hydrochlorothiazide and chlorthalidone, 12.5 mg would be acceptable as a minimum dose when used in combination with one or more other antihypertensive medications. For subjects on 2 non-diuretic antihypertensive medications, because they either failed or have been unable to tolerate a diuretic, the 2 medications should consist of any of the classes of antihypertensive agents listed below, with the preferred choice of an ACE inhibitor or ARB and a CCB. In the latter case, if both ACE inhibitor/ARB and CCB are contraindicated or not tolerated, such reasons must be documented. Note: The following classes of antihypertensive agents that would count towards the minimum number of agents are: ACE inhibitors, ARBs, CCBs, thiazide diuretics, loop diuretics, aldosterone antagonists, beta-blockers, centrally active agents, alpha receptor blockers, direct vasodilators, direct renin inhibitors, and hydralazine."}
