High blood pressure, or hypertension, is a common problem and there are three new reviews of treatments in the fourth issue of The Cochrane Library of 2008. In this Evidence Pod, Jim Wright coordinating editor of the Cochrane Hypertension Group sets the scene on hyptertension, its consequences and treatments; before that, Vijaya Musini describes the drugs tested in the reviews.
