RESUMO
Ongoing monitoring and targeted treatment are important to ensure the best blood-pressure control and thus prevent cardiovascular risks. In this review, we evaluate the findings of four clinical studies investigating the effects of morning versus bedtime dosing of antihypertensives. In three out of four studies, overwhelming results were found favouring bedtime dosing. The same studies have been criticized for mechanistic implausible results and multiple study biases. No harmful effects were reported in relation to bedtime dosing. Thus, antihypertensives can be taken as it is most convenient for the patient.
