Abstract There lacks real‐world study with a large sample size assessing olmesartan medoxomil‐amlodipine besylate (OM‐AML) tablet. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of OM‐AML tablet in patients with essential hypertension. Totally, 1341 patients from 36 medical centers with essential hypertension who took OM‐AML (20/5 mg) tablet were analyzed in the current prospective, single‐arm, multi‐center, real‐world study (SVK study). Seated systolic blood pressure (SeSBP) and seated diastolic blood pressure (SeDBP) at baseline, week (W)4 and W8 were measured. The mean (±SE) change of SeSBP/SeDBP was ‐10.8 ± 0.4/‐6.6 ± 0.3 mmHg at W4 and ‐12.7 ± 0.5/‐7.6 ± 0.3 mmHg at W8, respectively. At W4, 78.8% and 29.0% patients achieved BP target by China and American Heart Association (AHA) criteria; at W8, 84.7% and 36.5% patients reached blood pressure (BP) target by China and AHA criteria, accordingly. Meanwhile, 80.2% and 86.4% patients achieved BP response at W4 and W8, respectively. Home‐measured SeSBP and SeDBP decreased from W1 to W8 (both p
