  • Reduce urinary proteinuria than amlodipine, in protein-uric and hypertensive patients treated with renin-angiotensin blockades. 
  • Significantly decreases urinary albumin excretion without affecting serum creatinine concentration in hypertensive patients as compared to ACE inhibitor benazepril.
