Hypertension: Management of Adults in Primary Care
Developed by the National Collaborating Centre for Chronic Conditions at the Royal College of Physicians.
Hypertension (persistently high blood pressure) is a major factor contributing to cardiovascular diseases such as stroke and coronary heart disease, but one which can be modified by lifestyle and pharmacological interventions.
This pharmacological update of the 2004 guideline has been undertaken because recent large head-to-head trials have provided new information about the use of blood pressure-lowering drugs in line with the new evidence, specifically the first choice of drugs for initial therapy.
