Nowadays, many people have high blood pressure, and even some young people have high blood pressure to go to the hospital, which has a lot to do with irregular work and rest for a long time and staying up late. Don't underestimate hypertension, a disease that poses a great threat to human health. It may even cause people to lose their lives. Because hypertension can lead to blood vessel blockage, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular problems are very serious. Therefore, we must pay attention to our blood pressure problems. If there is any abnormality, control it immediately and follow the doctor's advice. Antihypertensive drugs are the most common way to control blood pressure, so it is necessary to know the time of taking drugs and some precautions.

First, the best time to take medicine Generally speaking, the peak of blood pressure appears in the morning. It is recommended to take antihypertensive drugs in the morning. If you take antihypertensive drugs at night, it is easy to block the cerebral vessels and lead to ischemic stroke, but this is not absolute. Some patients with hypertension have different constitutions and types of hypertension, and special treatment is still needed under special circumstances. Many people still have doubts about taking antihypertensive drugs before or after meals. It also depends on the situation. Generally speaking, short-acting antihypertensive drugs have better effect before meals, so that they can better absorb drugs and have obvious antihypertensive effect. Moderate antihypertensive drugs do not need to be taken every day, generally twice a day, and it is better to take them before meals, but for the elderly and diabetic patients, it is best to decide the time to take them according to the change of blood pressure. Long-acting antihypertensive drugs are taken before or after meals, and there is no difference in curative effect.

Second, don't stop taking drugs without authorization. Some hypertensive patients will take the initiative to stop taking drugs after their blood pressure is stable, which is very harmful. If patients with hypertension stop taking antihypertensive drugs when their blood pressure is unstable, they will only take antihypertensive drugs when their blood pressure suddenly rises, or reduce the dosage without authorization, which will bring negative effects to their health, because stopping taking antihypertensive drugs at will will easily cause coagulation substances such as platelets and fibrin to pile up in blood vessels, block the cerebral vessels and complicate ischemic stroke. If you take antihypertensive drugs irregularly, you can only take antihypertensive drugs when your blood pressure rises, which is easy to damage your heart, kidneys and brain. Sometimes blood pressure suddenly rises, and it is too late to take antihypertensive drugs, which is easy to rupture blood vessels or plaque to form thrombosis, leading to stroke. So no matter what the reason, you can't stop taking the medicine without authorization.

Third, don't resist antihypertensive drugs. Many patients will resist taking medicine and think it is a three-point poison. If you take antihypertensive drugs for a long time, it will affect your health. In fact, antihypertensive drugs only help patients control their blood pressure effectively, without dependence and addiction. If you don't take medicine, you can't control your illness in time, leading to serious diseases such as stroke, myocardial infarction, renal failure and even sudden death. The consequences are more serious. Don't resist antihypertensive drugs.
