Brief Summary   Background :
Hypertension poses a severe health risk to the Indian population. The prevalence of hypertension is on the rise in India and Worldwide. This study is planned as post marketing non-interventional observational study to be conducted in India to assess to assess efficacy and safety of Telmisartan 80 mg + Amlodipine 10 mg/ 5mg + Chlorthalidone 12.5 mg in hypertensive patients not responding to four weeks of therapy with Telmisartan 80 mg + Amlodipine 10 mg/ 5mg. The efficacy and safety for the treatment regimen of Telmisartan + Amlodipine dual combination therapy has been well established through enough clinical evidence. The combination is widely prescribed by the physicians. However there are cases where the patient does not respond to the treatment regimen and target blood pressure ranges are not reached even though the patient adheres to the treatment regimen prescribed by the physician. This may be due to inadequate treatment regimen. This becomes a problem for the patient as well as the physician, as uncontrolled blood pressure leads to other high risk complications (CVD‟s, chronic kidney disease etc.,). Such kind of non responder patient population prevalence is on the rise in India. Considering the rise in prevalence of hypertension in India and also rise in treatment non responders an alternative treatment regimen might be warranted. Our objective is to assess the efficacy and safety of Telmisartan 80 mg + Amlodipine 10 mg/ 5mg + Chlorthalidone 12.5 mg triple drug combination for effective management of stage II hypertension in patients who are not responding to four weeks of dual therapy with Telmisartan 80 mg + Amlodipine 10 mg/ 5mg.

Primary objective: To evaluate efficacy of Telmisartan 80 mg + Amlodipine 10 mg/ 5mg + Chlorthalidone 12.5 mg in hypertensive patients not responding to four weeks of dual therapy with Telmisartan 80 mg + Amlodipine 10 mg/ 5mg

Secondary objective: To evaluate safety of Telmisartan 80 mg + Amlodipine 10 mg/ 5mg + Chlorthalidone 12.5 mg in hypertensive patients not responding to four weeks of dual therapy with Telmisartan 80 mg + Amlodipine 10 mg/ 5mg

Cohort 1*: Telmisartan 80 mg + Amlodipine 5 mg/10 mg + Chlorthalidone 12.5 mg Cohort 2: Telmisartan 80 mg + Amlodipine 5 mg/10 mg *Patients not responding to Telmisartan 80 mg + Amlodipine 5 mg/10 mg dual therapy to receive triple therapy with corresponding dose of Telmisartan and Amlodipine. No provision of increasing dose of patients initiated on Telmisartan 80 mg + Amlodipine 5 mg to Telmisartan 80 mg + Amlodipine 10 mg
