Summary

The goal of this Randomized Controlled Trial is to carry out in adult patients with primary hypertension whose blood pressure control is not up to standard. The main question it aims to answer are: To explore the effect of pharmacists' implementation of "the medication therapy management pathway in hypertensive patients"on the patients with hypertension. Participants will receive structured drug treatment management at the first diagnosis. During on-site follow-up in the first, third and sixth months, as well as telephone follow-up in the second week, second and fourth months, patients will be evaluated, corresponding information will be collected and possible interventions will be taken.
