Summary

This study looks at whether taking blood pressure medication in the morning or evening can help restore the natural day-night blood pressure rhythm in people with obesity. Obese individuals often have high nighttime blood pressure, which increases heart risks. Researchers will compare two medications (sacubitril/valsartan and valsartan) given at different times of day to 160 participants over 28 days.
