Hypertension Management

The 2007 guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension suggest that the choice of antihypertensive drugs should be based on the presence of subclinical organ damage, clinical cardiovascular disease, renal disease, or diabetes, as well as the patient's previous experience with a given class of compounds and potential interactions with other drugs 1.

In the management of heart failure, ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers, and diuretics are recommended, with aldosterone antagonists providing additional benefit in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction 1.
