Brief Summary   This study is a double blind, randomized , placebo-controlled clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy of individualized homoeopathic medicines (IHMs) in the treatment of stage-I essential hypertension in adults. Hypertension is a leading non- communicable disease globally and a major risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This trial aims to compare changes in systolic and diastolic blood pressure over a 3 month period between two groups - one receiving individualized homoeopathic medicines and the other receiving identical looking placebo, measure the systolic and diastolic blood pressure in every 15 days up to 3 months. Secondary outcome include changes in biochemical parameters (lipid profile, liver and kidney function test, serum TSH, fasting and post prandial blood sugar) and health related quality of life measured by MYMOP-2 after 3 months of intervention. 
The study duration is 1 year 6 months, with a total of 120 patients enrolled using 2:1 randomization ( 80 in IHMs group and 40 in placebo-controlled group), patients will be  followed up every 2 weeks up to 3 month.
This study will be conducted in Mahesh Bhattacharyya Homoeopathic Medical College and Hospital, utilizing its outpatient population. The findings aim to contribute to evidence-based validation of individualized homoeopathic intervention in managing stage I hypertension and improving patients quality of life.
