Trends in Black-White Differences of Antihypertensive Treatment in Individuals With and Without History of Stroke.

Racial differences in the use of guideline-recommended antihypertensives decreased between 2003-2007 and 2013-2016 in stroke-free individuals. In stroke survivors, racial differences in CCB usage narrowed over the time periods. These findings suggest there is still a mismatch between race-specific hypertension guidelines and recent clinical practice.
