TREATMENT STRATEGIESTREATMENT STRATEGIESMild hypertension can often be controlled with a Mild hypertension can often be controlled with a single drug. More severe hypertension may single drug. More severe hypertension may require treatment with several drugs that are require treatment with several drugs that are selected to minimize adverse effects of the selected to minimize adverse effects of the combined regimen. Treatment is initiated with combined regimen. Treatment is initiated with any of four drugs depending on the individual any of four drugs depending on the individual patient: a diuretic, a patient: a diuretic, a -blocker, an ACE inhibitor, -blocker, an ACE inhibitor, or a calcium channel blocker. If blood pressure or a calcium channel blocker. If blood pressure is inadequately controlled, a second drug is is inadequately controlled, a second drug is added. A added. A -blocker is usually added if the initial -blocker is usually added if the initial drug was a diuretic, or a diuretic is added if the drug was a diuretic, or a diuretic is added if the first drug was a first drug was a -blocker. A vasodilator can be -blocker. A vasodilator can be added as a third step for those patients who still added as a third step for those patients who still fail to respond. fail to respond.

Thiazide diuretics. Thiazide diuretics. Adverse effectsAdverse effects::
Thiazide diuretics induce hypokalemia and Thiazide diuretics induce hypokalemia and hyperuricemia in 70 % of patients, and hyperglycemia in hyperuricemia in 70 % of patients, and hyperglycemia in 10 % of patients. Serum potassium levels should be 10 % of patients. Serum potassium levels should be monitored closely on patients who are predisposed to monitored closely on patients who are predisposed to cardiac arrhythmias (with left ventricular hypertrophy, cardiac arrhythmias (with left ventricular hypertrophy, ischemic heart disease, or chronic congestive heart ischemic heart disease, or chronic congestive heart failure) (to prevent development of fatigue, cramps, and failure) (to prevent development of fatigue, cramps, and arrhythmias) and who are concurrently being treated with arrhythmias) and who are concurrently being treated with both thiazide diuretics and digitalis glycosides.

Prazosin,Prazosin, doxazosin doxazosin andand terazosinterazosin produce a produce a competitive block of competitive block of 1 adrenoreceptors. They decrease 1 adrenoreceptors. They decrease peripheral vascular resistance and lower arterial blood peripheral vascular resistance and lower arterial blood pressure by causing the relaxation of both arterial and pressure by causing the relaxation of both arterial and venous smooth muscle. These drugs cause only minimal venous smooth muscle. These drugs cause only minimal changes in cardiac output, renal blood flow, and changes in cardiac output, renal blood flow, and glomerular filtration rate. Postural hypotension may glomerular filtration rate. Postural hypotension may occur in some individuals. Prazosin is used to treat occur in some individuals.

The direct-acting smooth muscle relaxants, such The direct-acting smooth muscle relaxants, such as as hydralazinehydralazine and and minoxidilminoxidil, have traditionally , have traditionally not been used as primary drugs to treat not been used as primary drugs to treat hypertension. They act by producing relaxation hypertension. They act by producing relaxation of vascular smooth muscle, which decreases of vascular smooth muscle, which decreases resistance and therefore decreases blood resistance and therefore decreases blood pressure. These agents produce reflex pressure. These agents produce reflex stimulation of the heart. They may prompt stimulation of the heart. They may prompt angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, or cardiac angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, or cardiac failure in predisposed individuals. failure in predisposed individuals.

Therapeutic RegimensTherapeutic Regimens
Once the diagnosis of hypertension is established, a Once the diagnosis of hypertension is established, a therapeutic regimen must be designed and therapeutic regimen must be designed and implemented. The goal of management for most implemented. The goal of management for most clients is to achieve and maintain normal blood clients is to achieve and maintain normal blood pressure range (below 140/90 mm Hg). If this goal pressure range (below 140/90 mm Hg). If this goal cannot be achieved, lowering blood pressure to any cannot be achieved, lowering blood pressure to any extent is still considered beneficial in decreasing the extent is still considered beneficial in decreasing the incidence of coronary artery disease and stroke.incidence of coronary artery disease and stroke.

If the initial drug (and dose) does not produce the If the initial drug (and dose) does not produce the desired blood pressure, options for further management desired blood pressure, options for further management include increasing the drug dose, substituting another include increasing the drug dose, substituting another drug, or adding a second drug from a different group. If drug, or adding a second drug from a different group. If the response is still inadequate, a second or third drug the response is still inadequate, a second or third drug may be added, including a diuretic if not previously may be added, including a diuretic if not previously prescribed. When current management is ineffective, prescribed. When current management is ineffective, reassess the client’s compliance with lifestyle reassess the client’s compliance with lifestyle modifications and drug therapy. In addition, review other modifications and drug therapy.
