Recommendations For Dr/ Hospital To Cure High Blood Pressure

[thaibeachlovers]

<br />

<br />First of all, you cannot cure high blood pressure. Once you are on medication, you are on it for the rest of your life. I have been on maintenance medication of about eight years now. The best medicine for me has been cozaar (25 mg/day) which I take along with a diuretic called dyazide (50 mg/day). You should confer with a doctor to find out what dosage you should take. It is also important to disclose whether there is a history of cardio-vascular problems in your family.<br /><br />Doctors often prescribe 'beta-blockers' like atenolol which controls heart rate. This was the very first drug I took and I found that it made me extremely lethargic. If you start taking cozaar, you should not take viagra or cialis. This could cause a sudden drop in blood pressure and even death -- but you might have a smile on your face!<br />

<br /><br /><br />Very good advice, I too was on Cozaar, it is one of the best out there for most people, it has few side effects and is well tolerated, it would be interesting to know what your BP readings are and how you have concluded that you do indeed have Hypertention (HB), blood pressure is actually difficult to diagnose especially if it's marginal, simply going to a doctors and having it measured can actually make it go up therefore giving a false reading, my advice (without hearing your reply) would be to buy one of those monitors to enable you to measure your own, then use it at home when you are relaxed and at various other times during the day/night, this will give you a better picture of your condition, most peoples BP will rise with age, normal is 120/80 the important part of that measure is the lower reading (Diastolic) it should be ideally below 90, if it is consistantly above 90 then you would be considered to have mild Hypertention, above 100 and you have moderate etc, if you measure it yourself and find it to be around 90 then taking 1 25mg Cozaar would be a good idea, above 100 then you usually need a combination of drugs like above, you don't need a doctor for mild below 100, medication is readily available and if you can measure your own BP then you could monitor it yourself, if your lower BP is over 100 then you prob need to see a doctor as treatment choice becomes more difficult. <br /><br />My BP was so bad I had symptoms, it was like 180/120, and stayed high even on meds for a number of years, I stopped work came to live inThailand and after 6 months ran out of meds so stopped taking them for about 4 weeks, was walking through a shopping mall one day and they where doing free checks so I had it done 120/80 and it has been the same ever since, lifestyle and work pressures can influence BP dramatically, the cure for me was getting rid of stress and replacing it with a very relaxed environment.<br />

<br /><br /><br />

Assuming you are asking me, I was told by my Dr I had high BP on my last visit, so on arriving in LOS bought a pressure cuff, and my diastolic was under 100, but recently became high over a few days, perhaps brought on by Cialis ( stopped taking that now ).

However, it has dropped, so panic over for now, though will keep checking, and if it goes up again for a significant time will consider all the excellent suggestions for somewhere to go.

As above, I hope a more relaxed lifestyle ( and I'm so relaxed now I could be a shop manniquin ) will reduce the pressure without need for drugs.

Thanks for the helpful posts.

Now, if someone can tell me how to make money without working ( not gambling on the stockmarket either ) I'll be really happy!

diastolic over 100 is high, if you look at the origins of Viagra and the like they started off a medication for HBP the errectile effect was noticed during development as a side effect so taking these medications should actually reduce BP not increase it.

Hmmmm. Well, after I took the Cialis I thought I was going to die for the chest pain, and my diastolic was way high. Perhaps that's not what should have happened, but it did, and I won't be risking it again.

Anyway, I'm sure you aren't supposed to take it if your BP is high.

Thanks for the info about the water, bunta. I'll give it a try

Viagra is a vasodilator and is a treatment for the life threatening condition of pulmonary hypertension. The drug is marketed as Revatio.
