Swedish residents on antihypertensive monotherapy with a RAAS inhibitor were compared with those on monotherapy with either a CCB or a TZD, in both intention‐to‐treat and as‐treated models. CCB indicates calcium channel blocker; HR, inverse probability of treatment‐weighted and multivariate‐adjusted Cox proportional hazard ratio; RAAS, renin‐angiotensin aldosterone system; and TZD, thiazide diuretic.
