Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.

Cardinal Behaviors of Successful Longterm Weight Management
National Weight Control Registry Data
• Self-monitoring:
– Diet: record food intake daily, limit certain foods or food
quantity
– Weight: check body weight >1 x/wk
• Low-calorie, low-fat diet:
– Total energy intake:
1300-1400 kcal/d
– Energy intake from fat: 20%-25%
• Eat breakfast daily
• Regular physical activity: 2500-3000 kcal/wk
(eg, walk 4 miles/d)

Pathogenesis of Metabolic syndrome
2 major, interacting causes
• Obesity and abnormal body fat distribution
disorders of adipose tissue.
• Endogenous metabolic susceptibility
 Insulin resistance
• A constellation of independent factors
(e.g. molecules of hepatic, vascular, and immunologic
origin) Contributors: aging , proinlfammatory state,
hormonal change.

• a1-blockers… have been shown to adequately lower blood pressure and to
also have favorable metabolic effects.
• As the only trial testing an a1-blocker (the doxazosin arm of the ALLHAT
trial) was interrupted before crucial evidence could be obtained, the overall
benefits or harm of a1-blockers for antihypertensive therapy remain
unproved.
• However, all these agents have been frequently used as added drugs in
trials documenting cardiovascular protection and can thus be employed for
combination treatment.
• a1-blockers have a specific indication in the presence of benign prostatic
hypertrophy.

Combination Therapy Emphasized in All Guidelines
JNC 7



Most patients with hypertension will require 2 or more antihypertensive medications to achieve
goal BP
If BP is more than 20/10 mm Hg above goal BP, consideration should be given to initiating therapy
with 2 agents, 1 of which usually should be a thiazide-type diuretic

WHO/ISH



Less than half of hypertension patients will attain target pressures with monotherapy; as many as
30% will need 3 or more drugs
Diuretic should be a component of combination therapy

ESH-ESC 2007




Regardless of the drug employed, monotherapy allows to achieve BP target in only a limited number
of hypertensive patients
Use of more than one agent is necessary to achieve target BP in the majority of patients.
In several patients BP control is not achieved by two drugs and a combination of three of more
drugs is required.
