What antihypertensive drugs should be taken for gestational hypertension?

Patient's question:

I got pregnant in March this year. When I did a thorough check-up in June, the doctor said my blood pressure had been high and it should be preeclampsia. I want to ask what antihypertensive drugs are recommended for gestational hypertension?

Doctor's answer:

During pregnancy, if you have high blood pressure, it is recommended that patients go to a regular hospital's gynecology department for early follow-up and treatment. Appropriate antihypertensive drugs can be taken, but other medications may also have abnormal effects on the fetus. Pay attention to getting more rest and engaging in appropriate exercise. Most patients can effectively stabilize their high blood pressure symptoms. Generally speaking, there is no very special solution, so just take it slow and live normally.
