  • After treatment with at least two types of antihypertensive drugs for 4 weeks or more, the clinic systolic blood pressure is ≥140 mmHg and ≤180 mmHg, and the average 24 - hour ambulatory systolic blood pressure is ≥130 mmHg (or the daytime ambulatory systolic blood pressure is ≥135 mmHg).
  • Resting heart rate ≥70 beats per minute without taking beta - blockers (this criterion does not apply to patients taking beta - blockers).

  • Having only one kidney or having received a kidney transplant.
  • Having a history of renal artery interventional treatment or renal denervation surgery.
  • Suffering from any condition that may affect the accuracy of blood pressure measurement, such as the upper arm diameter being too large relative to the cuff.

  • Having an implantable cardioverter - defibrillator (ICD) or pacemaker.
  • Having obvious symptoms of active peptic ulcer (such as abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, regurgitation, etc.).
  • Having obvious bleeding tendency and hematological diseases.
  • Having a history of surgery or trauma requiring hospitalization within 30 days before randomization for enrollment.
  • Having a cardiovascular event (stable or unstable angina, myocardial infarction) or cerebrovascular event (stroke, cerebrovascular accident, transient ischemic attack) within 6 months before randomization for enrollment.
