Alert! Hypertension into hypotension to adjust the treatment. Hypertension patients need long-term medication, in this process, some friends will be converted to hypotension, but the symptoms of hypotension and hypertension are similar, making patients into treatment errors. Patients should be vigilant to prevent abnormal transformation of blood pressure and avoid life-threatening.
With the improvement of people's living standard, the incidence rate of hypertension is higher and higher. It is harmful to our health. Hypertension patients need long-term medication, in this process, some friends will be converted to hypotension, but the symptoms of hypotension and hypertension are similar, making patients into treatment errors. So why does hypertension turn into hypotension?
First of all, the blood pressure of the human body will change with the changes of the outside world, especially in the sudden change of climate, which will seriously affect the blood pressure. In summer, blood pressure is generally lower, while in autumn and winter, blood pressure is higher. For the elderly, the seasonal change of blood pressure will be more sensitive, and the cerebral blood flow of the elderly will decrease with the growth of age. If the blood pressure suddenly decreases, it is easy to have cerebral ischemia symptoms.
Secondly, because of long-term use of antihypertensive drugs, some antihypertensive drugs with strong side effects will have adverse effects on blood pressure, causing postural hypotension. Such as central antihypertensive drugs and so on, the antihypertensive effect of these drugs is not stable, easy to cause sudden hypotension. Some elderly people may have sudden hypotension after taking angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor antagonists.
Finally, some hypertensive patients lack correct understanding when taking antihypertensive drugs. They will increase, decrease or use them together with other antihypertensive drugs at will, which may lead to sudden and rapid drop of blood pressure. In addition, there are very few patients who are very sensitive to some antihypertensive drugs. After taking antihypertensive drugs, their blood pressure will suddenly drop very low, even threatening their lives. In order to avoid this situation, patients must not change their dressing without permission. When taking a new antihypertensive drug, they must pay attention to monitoring the change of blood pressure. For patients with acute cerebrovascular disease, do not increase the dosage of antihypertensive drugs when high blood pressure is found. Take drugs under the guidance of doctors to avoid accidents.
The above is the reason why hypertension can become hypotension. Patients with hypertension should be vigilant in daily life to prevent the abnormal transformation of blood pressure and avoid life-threatening. Wish you a happy life!
