Abstract: Upon reviewing the effects of many anti-hypertensive medications on patients, we noticed that some medications are working more efficiently in Middle Eastern communities while others are less efficient, so we decided to test the effects of lisinopril and valsartan in a single-blinded clinical trial on a Middle Eastern community sample. We chose a random sample of 100 patients and followed them up with treatment for one month of each medication, and we found out that both ACE inhibitors and ARBs are effective in terms of lowering both systolic and diastolic blood pressures with a slightly better efficacy for lisinopril.
