Study Summary

Hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular and renal disease, and a leading cause of premature mortality worldwide. Ambulatory blood pressure (BP) monitoring (ABPM) allows for assessment of BP throughout the day and night. Of all the BP measurements, nighttime systolic BP appears to be the best predictor of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. Importantly, elevated nighttime BP is a modifiable risk factor; evening dosing of antihypertensive medications lower nighttime BP and reduces proteinuria. In a large, randomized controlled trial, evening dosing of antihypertensive medications reduced the hazard rate for major cardiovascular events by 67%. Findings were similar in the subgroup of participants with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, this single-center study was designed to evaluate cardiovascular outcomes, not progression of CKD. The long-term effect of nighttime dosing of antihypertensive medications on progression of CKD is unknown. To address this important gap in knowledge, the investigators plan to conduct a pragmatic, randomized controlled trial. 3600 participants at risk for progression of CKD who are taking ≥1 antihypertensive medication once daily will be randomized to morning versus evening dosing of at least one antihypertensive medication. The purpose of the current study is to obtain pilot data demonstrating the feasibility of the trial and the efficacy of the intervention.

Primary Outcome

Participants will be called three to six weeks after their clinic visit by study personnel. Participants will be asked the following questions about the once a day antihypertensive medication involved in the study: "In the last seven days, how many times did you take \[name of antihypertensive medication\] in the morning? In the last seven days, how many times did you take \[name of antihypertensive medication\] in the evening?"
