  • Title: Timolol and bendrofluazide in the management of hypertension in general practice.
    Author: Wheatley D.
    Journal: Eur J Clin Pharmacol; 1978 Dec 18; 14(5):319-24. PubMed ID: 365544.
    Abstract:
    The beta-adrenergic blocking drug, timolol, was combined with bendrofluazide in a comparative trial between once and twice daily dosage, conducted on 51 patients suffering from hypertension seen in general practice. During the initial control period seven of these patients became normotensive, leaving 44 who entered the trial. Using a crossover design, treatment was continued for a total period of up to 16 weeks. With both dose regimes, systolic and diastolic pressures were rendered normotensive in over three-quarters of the patients, significant reductions occurring within the first two to four weeks of treatment.
