2. Pretreatment with Amlodipine, Diuretics and AT1Blocker/ACEInhibitor within the last 3 months
3. Myocardial infarction within last 6 months.

12. Known or suspected secondary hypertension (e.g., renal artery stenosis or phaeochromocytoma)
13. Mean in-clinic seated cuff SBP ≥180 mmHg and/or DBP ≥110 mmHg
14. Renal dysfunction as defined by the following laboratory parameters:
15. Serum creatinine \>3.0 mg/dL (or \>265 μmol/L) and/or known estimated creatinine clearance of \<30 ml/min and/or clinical markers of severe renal impairment.
16. Bilateral renal artery stenosis, renal artery stenosis in a solitary kidney, post-renal transplant patients or patients with only one kidney
17. Clinically relevant hypokalemia or hyperkalemia (i.e., \<3.0 or \>5.5 mEq/L, may be rechecked for suspected error in result)
18. Uncorrected sodium or volume depletion
19. Primary aldosteronism
20. Hereditary fructose intolerance
21. Biliary obstructive disorders (e.g., cholestasis) or hepatic insufficiency
22. Clinically significant ventricular tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter or other clinically relevant cardiac arrhythmias as determined by the Investigator
23. Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, severe obstructive coronary artery disease, aortic stenosis, hemodynamically relevant stenosis of the aortic or mitral valve
24. Patients whose diabetes has not been stable and controlled for at least the past three months as defined by an HbA1C ≥10%
25. Patients who have previously experienced symptoms characteristic of angioedema during treatment with ACE inhibitors or angiotensin-II receptor antagonists
26. History of drug or alcohol abuses within six months prior to signing the informed consent form
27. Concomitant administration of any medications known to affect BP, except medications allowed by the protocol
28. Any investigational drug therapy within one month of signing the informed consent
29. Known contraindication to any component of the trial drugs (telmisartan, amlodipine, olmesartan, hydrochlorothiazide)
30. History of non-compliance or inability to comply with prescribed medications or protocol procedures
31. Any other clinical condition which, in the opinion of the investigator, would not allow safe completion of the protocol and safe administration of the trial medication
