Patient's question:
My father has had high blood pressure for the past two years. He has taken many medications, but it hasn't been cured. I want to ask the doctor if high blood pressure can be cured.Doctor's answer:
Most high blood pressure cannot be cured. Some patients can achieve the effect of high blood pressure through proper lifestyle adjustments. However, most patients require long-term control, including medication and non-medication treatments. Treatment includes diuretics for lowering blood pressure, calcium channel blockers, beta-blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor antagonists, and cross-linking agents, as well as traditional Chinese medicine preparations. Appropriate antihypertensive drugs should be determined under guidance.
