Abstract
Now that many options for treating hypertension are available and the studies of their use have proliferated, selecting a specific antihypertensive agent for a specific condition often receives an inordinate amount of attention from physicians. Controlling the blood pressure per se should be our primary concern ("dinner"), while choosing agents that may have added benefit in specific situations is secondary ("dessert").
