Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Cumulative Sodium Excretion (Natriuresis) at Day 1 [ Time Frame: 0-6 and 0-24 hours on Day 1 ]
    Urine will be collected in fractions of 6 to 24 hours post-dose. From each fraction, a sample will be drawn for analysis of sodium Day 1


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Cumulative Sodium Excretion (Natriuresis) at Day 28 [ Time Frame: 0-6 and 0-24 hours on Day 28 ]
    Urine will be collected in fractions of 6 to 24 hours post-dose. From each fraction, a sample will be drawn for analysis of sodium Day 28

  2. Urine Volume (Diuresis) Over Time [ Time Frame: Day -1, Day 1 & Day 28 ]
    Urine will be collected and volume measured in fractions of 0 to 6 hours and 0 to 24 hours Day-1, Day 1 and Day 28

  3. Seated Office Blood Pressure (BP) (Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) and Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP)) Over Time [ Time Frame: Day-1, Day 14 and Day 28 ]
    Seated Office BP (systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP))measurements will be performed at trough(immediately prior to dosing at the clinic). Arterial BP readings will be made with an automated BP device.

  4. Mean Sitting Pulse Pressure (PP) Over Time [ Time Frame: Day-1, Day 14 and Day 28 ]
    Sitting mean pulse pressure rate was calculated between ambulatory SBP and DBP measurements
