Are you looking for a more effective method to control your blood pressure?

Join us for AIM HY INFORM Clinical Trial. You can make a difference.

The objective of the AIM HY programme is to provide the best medicine for the individual suffering from hypertension.  Since people of different ethnic group respond differently to high blood pressure medication, we are focusing on individuals of African/Caribbean and South Asian ethnic cohorts as these are UK’s highest ethnic minority. If you are of this ethnic background and would like to find the best medication for your high blood pressure, you can enquire about our Clinical Trial: Contact the Research Nurse closest to you:

Share your comments on “your life with hypertension” and/or your experience of AIM HY INFORM Clinical Trial.

” I was diagnosed with high blood pressure more than 10 years ago. In August 2015, I had a Coronary Angioplasty surgery when three stents were inserted in one of my heart’s arteries. My symptoms improved a bit but not significantly. In August 2017, I saw an advert inviting people to participate in the AIM HY programme. I hurriedly offered myself as a guinea-pig. I have only started the first round of dual therapy and believe me, I am feeling so much better.

For the first time in many years, I ran to catch a bus without feeling short of breath. I have opted to be an ambassador of this programme because it is effective.
