You may be eligible if
History of HTN and one of the following at BOTH screening and pre-randomization:
1. SBP \>105 mm Hg on antihypertensive medication.
2. SBP \>/= 140 mm Hg and NOT on antihypertensive medication.
NYHA class I-III heart failure and with reduced ejection fraction \</= 40%, as determined by any local measurement made within the past 12 months using echocardiography, MUGA, CT scanning, MRI, ventricular angiography or single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), provided no subsequent measurement above 40%. Patients who have had an intervening medical event (e.g. myocardial infarction) or procedure (e.g. revascularization, cardiac resynchronization), must have a reassessment of EF ≥ 3 months following the event to ensure that eligibility criteria are still met.
On stable doses of treatment with guideline-directed therapy, other than ACEis and ARBs prior to randomization.
1. If the patient is currently taking an ACEi, a 36-hour washout is required prior to randomization (Visit 2).
2. If the patient is currently taking an ARB, they must discontinue the ARB before initiation of study treatment however washout is not required.
On an optimal medical regiment of diuretics and background medications to effectively treat co-morbidities such as HTN, DM, and coronary artery disease.
You may not be if

History of angioedema, drug-related or otherwise.
