1, avoid sudden withdrawal after blood pressure is stable.
It is very common for patients to find that their blood pressure has been stable for a long time and want to stop taking drugs. However, hypertension is a chronic disease. The short-term stability does not mean that the disease itself has disappeared, which can only be regarded as a good performance of disease control. If the drug is suddenly stopped, it will make the disease repeat, and the blood pressure that has been finally controlled will start to fluctuate again, and complications will easily follow.
2, when the effect decreases, change the medicine in time.
Patients with hypertension should also pay attention to the efficacy of antihypertensive drugs when taking them for a long time, especially when taking drugs at the beginning. If the effect of drugs is not obvious or the effect of drugs declines, they should discuss with doctors and change drugs. Because patients in each situation need to use different drugs, long-term control can only be achieved by choosing the drugs that are most suitable for them.
3. Pay attention to your diet while taking medicine.
After using antihypertensive drugs, it is not guaranteed that blood pressure will be in a stable range. Therefore, patients need to control their diet during the use of antihypertensive drugs. They must avoid eating foods with heavy tastes, otherwise their blood pressure will remain high, and even if the dosage is increased, blood pressure cannot be controlled.
4. Pay attention to the dosage and use time of the drug.
When patients use drugs, they need to strictly abide by the dosage and time of use, because the drugs themselves have side effects, which will cause damage to the human body. If large doses of antihypertensive drugs are used, it will increase the burden on the kidneys and lead to kidney diseases. And the time of drug use determines the degree of control of drug side effects. Some drugs need to be used after meals, mainly to reduce the impact of drugs on the digestive tract and to facilitate drug absorption.
5. Change drug use when the seasons change.
Blood pressure changes with the seasons, so when the seasons change, patients can go to the hospital for examination and ask the doctor to change the method of using drugs. The change of blood pressure is not static, so patients can't control their blood pressure by a single method for a long time, and they need to change their medication methods with the change of external stimuli.
6, avoid using with other drugs at the same time.
Patients with hypertension need to avoid taking antihypertensive drugs at the same time, because these drugs have certain side effects. If the two drugs interact with each other, they may increase the side effects or halve the curative effect. So if you need to take other drugs in your life, you can ask your doctor, or take the two drugs separately to avoid conflict.
In order to control hypertension well, patients must learn how to use drugs, because drug control is the key factor to stabilize blood pressure in daily life. If drugs can't be used effectively, blood pressure will only fluctuate more and more, which will lead to serious complications.
