Causes of High Blood Pressure

There are two major types of hypertension: essential (primary) and secondary. Essential hypertension is by far the most common, accounting for more than 95% of all cases. The cause of this form of hypertension is not known for certain, but is likely a combination of factors, including:

Genes for high blood pressure
Low levels of nitric oxide, a naturally occurring agent responsible for the dilation of blood vessels (African Americans are believed to have low levels of this substance)
Insulin resistance
Obesity

The causes of secondary hypertension include:

Kidney disorders
Endocrine disorders, such as Cushing's syndrome
Obstructive sleep apnea (episodes during sleep when breathing stops due to obstruction of the air passages).
Stress
Chronic heavy alcohol consumption (accounts for 10% of cases of secondary high blood pressure).
Long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), particularly in the elderly.
Use of certain medications, including oral contraceptives, pseudoephedrine, hormone replacement therapy, and steroids..
Heavy coffee drinking (5 or more cups per day), particularly in those who have previously had high blood pressure.
Use of cocaine, nicotine, or licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra) can cause or worsen existing hypertension.
