The purpose of this study is to compare efficacy and safety of candesartan and losartan in hypertension with heart failure.
This is a randomized, open-label, phase 4 study. wash out periods need at least 14 days if the patients take ARB or ACE inhibitor to control Blood pressure. Patients take Candemore or Cozzar once a day during 16 weeks.

ratio of normalize from baseline blood pressure at 16 weeks
normalize means that sitting SBP and DBP is below 140mmHg and 90mmHg
Time frame: baseline, 16 weeks
response ratio from baseline blood pressure at 16 weeks
response means that decrease in sitting DBP and SBP is above 10mmHg and 20mmHg
