Mondo Health Updated on 2024-01-28

Hypertension is a common disease manifestation in the middle-aged and elderly population today, due to the increase in plaque in the blood vessels and the increased degree of arteriosclerosis, most patients with hypertension need to take drugs for a long time**.

However, during the use of the drug, many patients still find that even after taking the medicine, they always do not control their blood pressure well, so why is this?In this regard, the doctor will explain the reason, which may help you control the pressure smoothly.

1. Problems with drug use.

1.Drug strength.

In medicine, hypertension is usually divided into 3 levels according to the peak level, and the highest level of friends usually needs to use joint conditioning methods to carry out**, while slightly lower friends can use antihypertensive drugs such as dipine and sartan alone to control blood pressure.

Moreover, because people differ in the rate of drug absorption and the ability to metabolize liver function, different drugs need to be used to exert their effects, even under the same blood pressure conditions.

Therefore, if you find that your blood pressure does not improve after the initial dose, it may be related to the lack of strength of the medication, and you should also consult your doctor and change the medication under his or her guidance.

2.Dosage of medication.

In addition to the category of the drug itself, the amount of use will also directly affect the efficacy of the drug. For patients with more severe conditions, it may be necessary to increase the dose to see a significant effect. However, patients should remember not to change the dosage of medication on their own, and beware of adverse reactions and ***

2. Influence on its own conditions and the environment.

1.Effect of ambient temperature.

For example, in the colder season, blood vessels are more likely to be hyperpressured, and if you take the drug according to the dosage of the warmer season, the effect may be reduced.

Therefore, when the season changes or the temperature changes, patients with hypertension should also contact the doctor in time and scientifically change the medication.

2.Sleep quality effects.

During the night, the body's basal metabolic rate and blood flow rate will slow down, and blood pressure will also drop to a relatively stable state. Insomnia, dreams, or frequent awakenings in the morning can lead to poor mental state and increased blood pressure changes. Therefore, regulating blood pressure and promoting drug absorption often require good sleep quality as a guarantee.

3.The impact of the patient's state of mind.

In recent years, more and more experimental studies have shown that there is a strong correlation between people's mood and changes in blood pressure peaks, and friends who have been in a state of anxiety, anger and impatience for a long time are often more likely to have high blood pressure, and the effect of drugs will be relatively poor.

People who can maintain a positive attitude and not get angry tend to have more obvious effects on blood pressure regulation.

However, although the situation of blood pressure can not be lowered, you need to pay attention, but you don't need to be too anxious, as long as you can consult a doctor in time, and change the medication under the guidance of the doctor, take other active and effective maintenance methods, or you can make your blood vessels return to a youthful state, you may wish to give it a try.
