To be exact, western medicine is effective and safe for lowering blood pressure. At present, the choice of antihypertensive drugs can be divided into five categories, namely diuretics, calcium channel blockers, receptor blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin receptor antagonists and so on. This kind of antihypertensive drugs has the advantages of quick effect, clear mechanism and good antihypertensive effect, which is suitable for long-term stabilization and hypotension, and is also the first choice for hypertensive emergencies.
In addition, there are compound preparations containing traditional Chinese medicine ingredients, such as Zhenju Jiangya Tablets and Compound Apocynum venetum Tablets, which contain Flos Chrysanthemi Indici and Apocynum venetum, and can improve symptoms such as headache and dizziness caused by hypertension. At the same time, it also contains western medicine components, such as diuretics, central antihypertensive drugs, vasodilators and so on, among which western medicine components play a vital role in antihypertensive effect. At present, there are pure Chinese medicinal preparations such as Niuhuang Jiangya Tablet and Angong Jiangya Tablet on the market, which can achieve the effects of lowering blood pressure, calming the heart and resolving phlegm, and relieve hypertension caused by excessive liver fire, restlessness and dizziness. However, the antihypertensive effect of these drugs and the effect of preventing and treating cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications have not been clearly proved by medical research.
1, measure blood pressure regularly.
Patients with hypertension need to take medicine to treat this disease, especially when the blood pressure value is obviously increased. Monitor blood pressure regularly and adjust the dosage according to the test results.
2. Keep your heart calm
Too many emotions can easily lead to a sudden increase in blood pressure, so we should keep a calm attitude and face everything with a positive and optimistic attitude. At the same time, you can't do strenuous exercise to avoid emotional excitement.
3. Take a low-salt diet.
According to the research, for every 1 g salt intake every day, the high pressure will increase 2 mm Hg, and the low pressure will increase 1.7 mm Hg ... Therefore, it is necessary to control the daily amount of edible salt, and adults should not exceed 6 g. These 6 grams are not only salt, but also salt-containing seasonings such as soy sauce and monosodium glutamate and the amount of salt in food.
Step 4 quit smoking and drinking
Smoking can increase the heart rate by 5~20 times per minute and the systolic blood pressure by 10 ~ 25mmhg. Because cigarettes contain nicotine, it can excite sympathetic nerve and central nerve, make the heart beat faster, and at the same time, it will also prompt the adrenal gland to release a lot of catecholamines, which will cause arterioles to contract, thus leading to an increase in blood pressure. Nicotine also stimulates chemoreceptors in blood vessels, which reflexively leads to an increase in blood pressure. In addition, you should also drink less. High concentration of alcohol can cause arteriosclerosis and aggravate high blood pressure.
skill
Once diagnosed as hypertension, life intervention for 2~3 months. If the blood pressure is still on the high side, it is necessary to use drugs reasonably according to the doctor's advice, take drugs on time and in quantity, and do not stop taking drugs or change medicines without authorization, so as to protect the target organs, improve the quality of life and prolong life. In addition, keep a regular routine. Staying up all night will disturb the body's metabolic function and sympathetic nerve, thus affecting blood pressure. In addition, maintaining moderate exercise can promote systemic blood circulation, lower cholesterol, enhance muscle and bone toughness, and then lower blood pressure.
