OBJECTIVE：To reeval uate the systematic review/Meta-analy sis of efficacy and safety of eplerenone in the treatment of essential hypertension. METHODS ：Retrieved from PubMed ，Embase，Cochrane Library ，Web of Science ，Wanfang database，CNKI，VIP，systematic review/Meta-analysis about eplerenone in the treatment of essential hypertension were collected from the inception to June 24th，2021. After literature screening and data extraction ，the quality of included literatures were evaluated with PRISMA statement ；methodology quality of included literatures were evaluated with AMSTAR 2 scale；GRADE method was adopted to evaluate the evidence quality of outcome measures. Efficacy and safety index evaluation of included literatures were summeried. RESULTS ：A total of 8 systematic reviews/Meta-analyses were included ，involving 5 systematic reviews and 3 Meta-analysis，including 73 outcome indicators. PRISMA scores ranged from 7.5 to 23.5，including 6 literatures （75.0％）with≤15 points，1（12.5％）with ＞15-＜21 points and 1（12.5％）with ≥21 points. The results of AMSTAR 2 evaluation indicated that the methodological quality of 2 studies was low ，and that of 6 studies was very low . GRADE quality evaluation results showed that there were 3 high quality indicators ，24 medium quality indicators and 46 low or very low quality indicators；the factors contributed to downgrading evidence quality were limitation ，inconsistency，imprecision and publication bias. In terms of efficacy ，compared with placebo ，eplerenone could significantly reduce clinical blood pressure （CBP）and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure （ABP）. Its effect in reducing CBP was significantly better than other antihypertensive drugs or equivalent to other antihypertensive drugs. The effects of eplerenone on reducing clinical systolic blood pressure was not as good as spironolactone and enalapril ，or bett er than calcium channel blocker ，enalapril and angiotensin receptor antag onist，or equivalent to calcium channel blocker and enalapril ；the effect of eplerenone on reducing clinical diastolic blood pressure was not as good com as spironolactone ，calcium c hannel blocker and enalapril ，or as good as enalapril ，but better than angiotensin receptor antagonist. In terms of safety ，there was no significant difference in the incidence of ADR ，serious ADR or hyperkalemia caused by eplerenone ，compared with placebo ，or the incidence of ADR was higher than that of placebo. There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR or serious ADR ，compared with other antihypertensive drugs. CONCLUSIONS ：Efficacy and safety of eplerenone in the treatment of essential hypertension was good ，but in view of the poor methodological quality of systematic reviews or Meta-analysis and the low or very low level of outcome indicator evidence ，the authenticity and effectiveness of the conclusion will be reduced ，so that those indcaters should be interpreted carefully.
