Hypertension is more frequent and more severe in blacks than in other racial groups. Salt-sensitive and low-renin hypertension are both more frequent in blacks. Cardiovascular morbidity appears to be similar in blacks and whites and depends on the classic cardiovascular risk factors. Kidney damage leading to end-stage renal disease is more frequent in blacks. Reduced salt intake improves drug efficacy. Diuretics and calcium channel blockers are more effective in lowering blood pressure, while angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors may be more effective in preventing organ damage. Specific trials are needed to evaluate therapeutic benefits in blacks.
