Hypertension is defined as an elevated systolic BP (SBP), diastolic BP (DBP) or both SBP ≥140 mmHg and/or a DBP≥90mmHg Causes: Primary (Essential) Secondary 10-15% Treatment: 1.Nonpharmacological (Life-style modification) 2.Pharmacological

Reducing hypertension-related complications (target organ damage) was the ultimate goal of treatment, particularly, coronary heart disease, stroke, heart failure, and renal insufficiency Decisions about the management depend upon: BP levels Presence of other cardiovascular risk factors, Target organ damage, Associated clinical conditions.

Diuretics Sympathoplegic drugs 1. ß-adrenergic antagonists. 2. α-adrenergic antagonists. 3. Mixed adrenergic antagonists. 4. Centrally acting agents. 5. Adrenergic neuron blocking agents.  Calcium channel blockers  Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors  Angiotensin ІІ receptor antagonists  Vasodilators

Centrally acting agents Mechanisms & Sites of Action: Reduce sympathetic outflow from vasopressor centers Increase their sensitivity to baroreceptor control.

Alpha2-agonist Reduce norepinephrine release onto relevant receptor sites Act on presynaptic alpha2- adrenoceptors to inhibit activity of appropriate neurons Binds to a nonadrenoceptor site, the imidazoline receptor,

Clonidine does not decrease renal blood flow or glomerular filtration. clonidine may be administered in combination with a diuretic Adverse effects Sedation Drying of the nasal mucosa. Rebound hypertension occurs following abrupt withdrawal.

Converted to alpha-methylnorepinephrine centrally to diminish the adrenergic outflow from the CNS Reduced total peripheral resistance and a decreased blood pressure Blood flow to the kidney is not diminished

Sedation Drowsiness It has been used in hypertensive pregnant patients

A. GUANETHIDINE guanethidine can produce profound sympathoplegia. Guanethidine can produce all of the toxicities expected from "pharmacologic :sympathectomy,” marked postural hypotension, diarrhea, impaired ejaculation

Reserpine blocks the ability of aminergic transmitter vesicles to take up and store biogenic amines Depletion of norepinephrine, dopamine, and serotonin in both central and peripheral neurons Postural hypotension is mild

Sedation Mental depression Parkinsonism symptoms

1.The b-blockers reduce blood pressure primarily by decreasing cardiac output. 2.They may also decrease sympathetic outflow from the central nervous system. 3.Inhibit the release of rennin from the kidneys, thus decreasing the formation of angiotensin II and the secretion of aldosterone.

The prototype B-blocker is propranolol, which acts at both B1 and B2 receptors. Selective blockers of B1 receptors, such as metoprolol and atenolol are among the most commonly prescribed B-blockers

1. Treatment of hypertension. 2. Hypertensive patients with concomitant diseases

1.Common effects 2.Alterations in serum lipid patterns: 3.Drug withdrawal:

They decrease peripheral vascular resistance and lower arterial blood pressure by causing relaxation of both arterial and venous smooth muscle. These drugs cause only minimal changes in cardiac output, renal blood flow, and glomerular filtration rate

 Prazosin, doxazosin, and terazosin produce a competitive block of alpha1-adrenoceptors. Adverse effects: 1. Reflex tachycardia 2. First-dose syncope 3. Postural hypotension may occur in some individuals

Labetalol and carvedilol block both ɑ 1- and β1- and β2- receptors. Carvedilol, although an effective antihypertensive, is mainly used in the treatment of heart failure.

Hydralazine: This drug causes direct vasodilatation, acting primarily on arteries and arterioles. This results in a decreased peripheral resistance, which in turn prompts a reflex elevation in heart rate and cardiac output. It is almost always administered in combination with a beta-blocker, such as propranolol (to balance the reflex tachycardia), and a diuretic (to decrease sodium retention).

Hydralazine monotherapy is an accepted method of controlling blood pressure in pregnancy-induced hypertension. Adverse effects : Headache, tachycardia, nausea, sweating, arrhythmia, and precipitation of angina. lupus-like syndrome

This drug causes dilation of resistance vessels (arterioles) but not of capacitance vessels (venules). Reflex tachycardia and fluid retention may be severe and require the concomitant use of a loop diuretic and a beta-blocker Minoxidil treatment also causes hypertrichosis

Classes of calcium-channel blockers 1. Diphenylalkylamines: Verapamil is the least selective of any calcium-channel blocker 2.Benzothiazepines: Diltiazem affects both cardiac and vascular smooth muscle cells; however, it has a less pronounced negative inotropic effect on the heart compared to that of verapamil.

3.Dihydropyridines: First-generation nifedipine and five second-generation agents for treating cardiovascular disease: amlodipine, felodipine, isradipin, nicardipin, and nisoldipine. All dihydropyridines have a much greater affinity for vascular calcium channels than for calcium channels in the heart. Amlodipine and nicardipine :little interaction with other cardiovascular drugs, such as digoxin or warfarin,

Calcium-channel antagonists block the inward movement of calcium by binding to L-type calcium channels in the heart and in smooth muscle of the coronary and peripheral vasculature. This causes vascular smooth muscle to relax, dilating mainly arterioles.

Calcium-channel blockers have an intrinsic natriuretic effect and, therefore, do not usually require the addition of a diuretic. These agents are useful in the treatment of hypertensive patients who also have asthma, diabetes, angina, and/or peripheral vascular disease.

There are four ways to reduce the activity of the Rennin Angiotesin Aldosterone System (RAAS) in human: 1.β-blockers 2.Rennin Inhibitors 3. ACE inhibitors 4. ARBs

ACE is a membrane-bound enzyme that is localized on the plasma membranes of various cell types, including: 1.Vascular endothelial cells, 2.Renal proximal tubular cells, 3.Neuroepithelial cells 4.Lung, which has a vast surface area of vascular endothelium

Benazepril, Captopril, Enalpril, Fosinopril, Lisinopril, Moexipril, Perindopril, Quinapril, Ramipril and Trandolapril. The essential effect of these agents on the RAAS is to inhibit the conversion of the relatively inactive Ang І to the active Ang ІІ. This action reduces Ang ІІ –mediated vasoconstriction and aldosterone secretion, and ultimately lowers BP

1.An increase in bradykinin. 2.An increase in the activity of the 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase enzyme, which could increase the renal sodium excretion by protecting the nonselective MR from cortisol. 3.Blunting of the expected increase in SNS activity 4.Improvement in endothelial dysfunction

1. Treatment of hypertension. 2. With diuretics is considered the standard regimen for patients with systolic heart failure. 3. Reno- protective effect, through its protienuric-sparing action in type 2 diabetic hypertensive patients. 4.Reduce overall mortality in acute MI.

1. Dry cough, rash, fever, altered taste, hypotension, and Hyperkalemia. 2. Angioedema 3. Reversible renal failure can occur in patients with severe bilateral renal artery stenosis. 4. ACE inhibitors are fetotoxic and should not be used by women who are pregnant.

1.Antacids may reduce the bioavailability. 2.Potassium sparing diuretics and potassium supplements may exacerbate hyperkalemia. 3.ACE inhibitors may increase plasma level of digoxin and lithium. 4.NSAIDs may impair the hypotensive effects by blocking bradykinin –mediated vasodilatation.

The effects of Ang ІІ are mediated via specific membrane-bound receptors. Ang ІІ is known to interact with at least two distinct Ang ІІ receptor subtypes: AT1 and AT2 receptors.

Losartan, candesartan, irbesartan, valsartan, telmisartan, eprosartan Specifically bind to Ang ІІ receptors in vascular smooth muscle, adrenal gland and other tissues, with more than fold selective for AT1 receptor than AT2 receptor. Thereby, relaxing smooth muscle, increasing salt and water excretion, reducing plasma volume, and decreasing cellular hypertrophy.

1. ARBs are used in patients with mild to moderate hypertension 2. ARBs are as effective as ACEIs in reducing mortality in high risk post-MI survivors. 3. ARBs can reduce the combined morbidity and mortality in patients with systolic heart failure 4. ARBs can be used safely in portal hypertension treatment.

1. Common adverse effects 2.Angioneurotic edema is relatively rare. ARBs does not cause cough. 3. First dose hypotension and rebound hypertension on abrupt withdrawal have not been encountered.

1. Cimetidine increases the C max of ARBs (due to enhanced absorption) 2. Concomitant ingestion of excess potassium and potassium sparing diuretics, NSAIDs and ß-receptor antagonists may result in hyperkalemia.

Aliskiren Directly inhibits rennin and, thus, acts earlier in the RAAS than ACE inhibitors or ARBs. It lowers blood pressure about as effectively as ARBs, ACE inhibitors, and thiazides. It can also be combined other antihypertensive, such diuretics, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, or calcium-channel blockers.

1.Aliskiren can cause diarrhea, especially at the higher doses. 2.Aliskiren can also cause cough and angioedema but probably less often than ACE inhibitors. 3.The drug is contraindicated during pregnancy. 4. Hyperkalemia was significantly more common in patients who received both ARBs and aliskiren

If the patient is young (age <55 years) or non-black, use either an ACE inhibitor (or ARB) (A). For older patients start with either a Calcium channel blocker or thiazide Diuretic as first-line therapy (C or D). If the blood pressure is not controlled at 4 weeks, a second agent should be added: if the patient is on an ACE inhibitor add a Calcium channel blocker or thiazide Diuretic (A+C or A+D),

If blood pressure control is still inadequate on dual therapy, A+C+D is the ideal triple regimen. If additional therapy is required, ɑ -blockade is effective at this stage Patients whose blood pressure remains substantially above target on triple therapy are likely to have aldosterone-sensitive hypertension that responds well to spironolactone
