1 The Antihypertensive and Lipid-Lowering Treatment to Prevent Heart Attack Trial ALLHAT study overview Double-blind, randomized trial to determine whether the occurrence of fatal CHD or nonfatal MI is lower for high-risk hypertensive patients treated with newer agents (amlodipine, lisinopril, or doxazosin) compared with a diuretic (chlorthalidone) Cohort 42,418 patients (55 years old) from 623 sites in North America –Stage 1 or 2 hypertension –1 additional risk factor for CHD Comparisons between chlorthalidone and amlodipine and chlorthalidone and lisinopril have been reported together, excluding the doxazosin arm (n=9,062), which was terminated early ALLHAT Research Group.

16 ALLHAT Conclusions Better control of systolic BP was achieved with chlorthalidone than with amlodipine or lisinopril There were no differences in risk for CHD death/nonfatal MI between chlorthalidone and amlodipine or lisinopril In secondary endpoints, chlorthalidone was associated with lower risk for –stroke, combined CVD, and HF compared with lisinopril –HF compared with amlodipine MI=myocardial infarction CHD=coronary heart disease HF=heart failure www.hypertensiononline.org ALLHAT Research Group. JAMA. 2002;288:2981-2997.

17 ALLHAT Implications Unless contraindicated, or unless specific indications are present that would favor use of another drug class, diuretics should be the initial drug of choice in antihypertensive regimens Only 30 percent of patients achieve both systolic BP <140 mmHg and diastolic BP <90 mmHg on monotherapy Many high-risk hypertensive patients will require 2 or more drugs for BP control www.hypertensiononline.org ALLHAT Research Group.
