What should be done if preeclampsia occurs during childbirth?

Patient's question:

During pregnancy, I developed preeclampsia while giving birth. After the birth, I received intravenous fluids to lower my blood pressure for two days in the hospital. On the third day, my blood pressure returned to normal, and the infusion was stopped. Five days after going home, I measured my blood pressure and found it to be 90-130. Currently, I am taking Compound Ferrous Sulfate Granules.
Hello, does the inability to lower blood pressure have anything to do with taking this medication? Is medication needed in this situation? Thank you for your help: Hello, does the inability to lower blood pressure have anything to do with taking this medication? Is medication needed in this situation? Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

This situation has nothing to do with taking ferrous sulfate. Ferrous sulfate is a medication used to supplement iron and treat anemia, and it has no relation to blood pressure. Do not take it blindly. Pregnancy-induced hypertension is very common. If it still drops after delivery, it is necessary to actively test and determine how to address the recurrence of primary hypertension. Pay attention to active control and do not take it blindly. The above advice is for the question "What should I do about pregnancy-induced hypertension during childbirth?" and I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
