High blood pressure, taking medication but not lowering, what to do?

Patient's question:

I used to have low blood pressure and often felt dizzy. The doctor told me to eat some nutritious food, but I never took any medication to raise my blood pressure. I don't know why my blood pressure has dropped now, not just high blood pressure, but even medication can't bring it down. What should I do in this situation?

Doctor's answer:

According to your current condition, if high blood pressure reoccurs, this situation is often more prone to developing cerebral artery atherosclerosis, easily leading to recurrent posterior circulation ischemia with symptoms such as dizziness. It is recommended that you consider taking oral medication in a timely manner and actively control your blood pressure. During daily life, pay attention to maintaining good lifestyle habits, reducing the intake of greasy foods. Regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene to avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
