Hypertension affects a quarter of the adult population and remains a leading cause of cardiovascular mortality, accounting for 13.5% of all deaths. Half of all strokes and ischaemic heart disease events are attributable to high blood pressure (BP) [1, 2]. Most patients exhibit Grade-I hypertension (systolic BP of 140 to 159?mmHg and/or diastolic BP of 90 to 99?mmHg) without co-existing cardiovascular disease.
