Hypertension is a very common type of chronic metabolic disease in today's clinical practice, especially for middle-aged and elderly people over 50 years old, with the continuous decline of their own blood vessel elasticity and the continuous rise of blood viscosity, it is easy to have different degrees of blood pressure increase, and the current clinical method for relieving hypertension is still mainly based on taking antihypertensive drugs.
So, for hypertensive patients who have been taking antihypertensive drugs for a long time, when their blood pressure levels remain stable, can they stop taking antihypertensive drugs? For the answer to this question, I believe that many people are very concerned, and the main reason why people have this question is actually that long-term use of drugs may lead to more and more prominent drugs, and then cause more or less negative effects on their liver and kidney function, but if patients with high blood pressure stop taking medicine immediately when their blood pressure levels tend to stabilize, it is actually very dangerous.
Judging from the current level of medical care, hypertension is completely achievable. If you have mild hypertension, you can often keep your blood pressure stable by actively adjusting your lifestyle and eating habits while cooperating with your doctor's guidance.
In this regard, it is possible to avoid medication as much as possible, but for patients with moderate to severe hypertension, long-term medication is inevitable, and if after taking the drug for a period of time, because their blood pressure level is in a stable state, stop the drug immediately, then it is easy to cause large fluctuations in their own blood pressure levels, and when the blood pressure is too high, it is easy to cause serious damage to the functions of important organs such as the brain, heart, liver and kidney.
Therefore, once patients start taking antihypertensive drugs, they often need to take them for a lifetime, and for the necessity of taking antihypertensive drugs on time, we must maintain an objective and rational attitude, and do not simply think that only when their blood pressure level is significantly increased, they need to be relieved by taking drugs, you know, the purpose of taking antihypertensive drugs is to regulate the blood pressure level in the body in advance, and not to remedy it afterwards, regardless of whether your condition is in a stable state. Patients with moderate to severe hypertension must take their medications on time and in the right amount.
Of course, in order to keep your blood pressure level as stable as possible, in addition to taking your medication on time and in the right amount, you also need to pay attention to the following things in your daily life.
1.Do not change the type of medication without permission.
According to the degree of the patient's condition and the actual condition of their own body, the drugs taken by different patients are often different, and the doctor also needs to comprehensively consider the patient's multi-faceted factors when formulating a specific plan for the patient, and finally choose the best type of antihypertensive drugs, and hypertension patients in daily life, if they only rely on personal experience to change the drug at will, it is easy to affect the control of the disease, and even induce more serious conditions.
2.Maintain a "3 low" diet.
Patients with high blood pressure should also pay attention to making corresponding adjustments in their daily diet, and should maintain the "3 low" diet structure as much as possible, that is, low oil, low salt and low sugar.
3.Stay in a good mood.
If patients with high blood pressure are in a state of tension and anxiety for a long time in their daily life, or often have excessive emotional fluctuations, it is easy to increase the pressure on the heart and promote abnormal blood vessel constriction.
This will have a great impact on the prevention of hypertension and the control of their own blood pressure, so patients with hypertension must actively adjust their emotions in their daily life, and if they are too stressed or in a bad mood, they must take timely measures to vent their pressure and relax themselves as much as possible.
