- The primary endpoint of the study will be changes in sitting systolic and diastolic blood pressure at the crossover and final visits. [ Time Frame: 8 weeks ]Patients will be treated with both nebivolol or lisinopril for a period of 4 weeks, and then crossover to the opposite medication for an additional 4 weeks.
- The secondary endpoint of the study will be changes in heart rate at the end of the crossover and final visits. [ Time Frame: 8 weeks ]Patients will be treated with both nebivolol or lisinopril for a period of 4 weeks, and then crossover to the opposite medication for an additional 4 weeks.
