The optimal treatment of drug resistant (defined as BP\> 140/85 despite three anti-hypertensive drugs including a diuretic) is not well defined. This study aims to test the hypothesis that resistant hypertension is caused by excessive expansion of extracellular fluid volume. A secondary objective is to study which of three different antihypertensive drugs would be most useful in drug resistant hypertension.
