DRUG

Telmisartan, Metformin, Cilostazol

Participants will be instructed to take the low dose of the proposed pharmacotherapy (i.e., Telmisartan 20mg QD, Metformin ER 500mg QD, Cilostazol IR 50mg QD) during week 1 and the full dose (i.e., Telmisartan 40mg QD, Metformin ER 500mg BID, Cilostazol IR 50mg BID) starting on week 2. They will continue to take the full dose until completion of the six-week robot assessed upper extremity training period (week 3-8). At the end of this period, they will be instructed to take the low dose of the proposed pharmacotherapy for two more weeks. During the entire study, participants will be monitored for potential side-effects.
