ALLHAT Outcomes in Hypertensive Black and Nonblack Patients Treated with Chlorthalidone, Amlodipine, and Lisinopril**Wright JT, Dunn JK, Cutler JA et al. JAMA 2005:293:1595-1608.
ALLHAT Randomized Design of ALLHAT BP Trial 42,418 High-risk hypertensive patients Consent / Randomize Amlodipine Chlorthalidone Doxazosin Lisinopril Follow until death or end of study (4-8 years, mean 4.9 years)
ALLHAT Race Subgroup Analysis • ALLHAT reported no differences in the primary CHD outcome, but overall superiority of thiazide-type diuretic for first-step therapy of hypertension based on differences in secondary outcomes • The population of blacks with hypertension has the highest morbidity and mortality from hypertension of any population group in the U.S. • Race was a prespecified subgroup for ALLHAT

ALLHAT ANGIOEDEMA There were 3 cases (<0.1%) of angioedema in the amlodipine group (comparison to chlorthalidone not significant).
ALLHAT Antihypertensive Trial:Implications • Diuretics should be the drug of choice for initial therapy of hypertension. The evidence for this recommendation is even stronger for Black hypertensive patients.. • For the patient who cannot take a diuretic (which should be an unusual circumstance), CCB’s and ACEI’s may be considered. However, in Black hypertensive patients, ACEI’s should be considered second-line therapy. • Most hypertensive patients require more than one drug. Diuretics should generally be part of the antihypertensive regimen. Lifestyle advice should also be provided.
