الإجابة: D. Furosemide
First-line agents for hypertension are a thiazide diuretic, CCB, or ACE inhibitor/ARB. Loop diuretics (furosemide) are not used for initial HTN management and are best avoided (risk of orthostatic hypotension and falls, especially in older adults). Options A–C are all first-line classes.
