Ethnicity as a predictor of blood pressure response to antihypertensive drugs.
C urrent guidelines recommend treatment initiation with any of five major drug classes in uncomplicated hypertension.

Ideally, reliable predictors of the BP response should guide the choice of antihypertensive treatment in individual patients. Although geno...
متن کاملInfluence of dietary modifications on the blood pressure response to antihypertensive medication.
Identifying dietary modifications that potentiate the blood pressure (BP)-lowering effects of antihypertensive medications and that are practical for free-living people may assist in achieving BP reduction goals. We assessed whether two dietary patterns were effective in lowering BP in persons on antihypertensive therapy and in those not on therapy. Ninety-four participants (38/56 females/males...
متن کاملInfluence of albuminuria and glomerular filtration rate on blood pressure response to antihypertensive drug therapy
BACKGROUND Albuminuria and glomerular filtration rate (GFR), two factors linked to kidney and vascular function, may influence longitudinal blood pressure (BP) responses to complex antihypertensive drug regimens. METHODS We reviewed the clinic records of 459 patients with hypertension in an urban, academic practice. RESULTS Mean patient age was 57-years, 89% of patients were African America...
متن کاملArterial pressure responses to discontinuing antihypertensive drugs.
rose promptly and treatment was restarted within a month. Among essential hypertensive patients, those who remained off treatment for 2 to 6 months had significantly lower pretreatment pressure than those whose hypertension returned in less than 2 months. The two whose diastolic hypertension seemed "cured" had no distinguishing features. These results suggest that most hypertensive patients req...
متن کاملReturn of elevated blood pressure after withdrawal of antihypertensive drugs.
The rate at which arterial pressure rises after discontinuing active treatment was investigated in a group of 86 hypertensive patients who received treatment with hydrochlorothiazide, reserpine and hydralazine for two years or longer and whose diastolic pressures averaged below 96 mm Hg for the last year of treatment. Sixty patients were assigned double-blind to placebos and 26 were continued o...
