What is the correct treatment for high blood pressure?

Patient's question:

I have always had high blood pressure. Although I take medication, it hasn't been effective. What is the correct treatment for high blood pressure?

Doctor's answer:

The correct treatment for high blood pressure is that, after the diagnosis of high blood pressure, it cannot be completely cured. Therefore, patients with high blood pressure must persist in taking oral antihypertensive drugs to stably control blood pressure. The decision on antihypertensive drugs must be combined with the patient's risk factors, the extent of organ damage, and some symptoms in clinical diagnosis to determine the principle of using one or more different drugs in combination. It is not advisable to stop taking medication or adjust the dosage arbitrarily. It is best to prioritize long-acting preparations and start with a low dose.
