Forty patients (aged 28-66 years) with essential hypertension were randomized to 14 weeks of treatment with diltiazem or hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) in a double-blind, parallel study design. A significant reduction in supine body weight (-6.0+/-1.5 lb; p< 0.001) and increase in pulse (+ 6+/-2 beats/min; p< 0.001) occurred in HCTZ-treated patients. Patients receiving diltiazem had no change in weight, but did have a significant fall in pulse (-5+/-2 beats/min; p< 0.05). The average reduction in supine systolic and diastolic blood pressures was comparable in both patient groups (-16+/-4/-11+/-2 mm Hg for HCTZ;-17+/-3/-12+/-1 for diltiazem). The reduction in blood pressure in HCTZ-and diltiazem-treated patients was not dependent on baseline plasma renin activity (PRA), but did correlate significantly with changes in PRA and prostaglandin E2-metabolite (PGE2-M)(r= 0.51, p= 0.016). PRA increased+ 2.8+/-0.6 ng/ml/h (p< 0.001) with HCTZ and+ 0.8+/-0.3 ng/ml/h (p< 0.05) with diltiazem. PGE2-M also rose with both drugs (52+/-22 pg/ml for HCTZ; 63+/-36 pg/ml for diltiazem). Thus, diltiazem and HCTZ were similar in that the depressor response to each drug activated the renin-angiotensin system, which in turn was accompanied by increased production of PGE2-M.
