All drugs have side effects.
There is a folk saying called "three poisons", which should mean that each drug has one side effect or another on the human body. However, the side effects of drugs do not always happen to everyone, but only to certain groups of people.
At the same time, there are five kinds of drugs to control blood pressure, and each kind will produce several drugs with different specifications and preparations. If you take one medicine and have side effects, you can choose another one instead. Therefore, you should also find a doctor to customize your own plan according to your personal situation, instead of using the same medicine.
You don't have to worry about the side effects of drugs as long as you choose drugs that are suitable for your body. Instead of insisting on controlling blood pressure. Complications will occur after a long time, and the damage to the body is irreversible.
Hypertension drugs are tolerated.
Many people have heard that antihypertensive drugs should be taken for life, and think that antihypertensive drugs are patient and can't stop after taking them. But this understanding is biased.
Drug dependence tolerance means that people who use alcohol, tobacco, drugs and other substances will become dependent on these substances. Once these substances are metabolized in the body, the human body will have physical and psychological discomfort, forcing people to constantly seek material supplements. This is called dependence, also called addiction.
The reason why hypertension drugs can't stop is because patients' blood pressure needs drugs to control. Once the drug concentration is reduced, it will only cause blood pressure to rise, and will not cause psychological and physical discomfort. So antihypertensive drugs need to be taken for life, which is different from drug addiction and drug dependence.
Smoking, alcohol and medicine should be quit, but they can't quit. Because of addiction, hypertension drugs can't quit, because essential hypertension is a chronic disease. At present, there is no radical cure, only the way to control and prevent complications. If blood pressure is not controlled, there will be various complications of heart, kidney, brain, eyes and blood vessels.
It makes no difference whether you take medicine or not.
In my life, I have met many patients who have been diagnosed with hypertension for many years but refused to take medicine. The reason why they don't take medicine is simple: Lao Wang next door also has high blood pressure, and he still lives well without taking medicine. ...
They think that although their blood pressure is high, they can eat, drink, run and jump, so they think that high blood pressure is a paper tiger to scare people, but when measuring blood pressure, it exceeds the standard. Like being overweight, many people have high blood pressure, which is not a big problem.
Some people even think that hypertension can't be cured by taking medicine anyway, so they simply don't take it.
Many people find that high blood pressure has not changed at all after one or two years, so they are lucky-it seems that this high blood pressure will be fine without taking medicine. But what they don't know is that hospitals all over the country receive patients with stroke due to out-of-control blood pressure every day.
These are all very wrong ideas. The purpose of hypertension treatment is not to let people take medicine every day, but to control blood pressure and prevent complications. So many people all over the world have explored for so long. At present, the best way to control blood pressure is drug control, which is convenient and stable.
Even patients with hypertension, as long as their blood pressure can be stably controlled and there are no complications of hypertension, in fact, their lives are no different from those of ordinary people, and there is no need to have too much prejudice against patients with hypertension taking medicine.
