NCT ID NCT07618806

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study compares two blood pressure medications, amlodipine and a purer version called levamlodipine, to see which causes less ankle swelling in post-menopausal women. About 344 women aged 50-79 with mild to moderate high blood pressure will take a daily pill for 18 weeks. Doctors will measure ankle swelling using a simple water bath method and check blood pressure at four clinic visits.
