Patient's question:
Doctor, I have been suffering from high blood pressure for a year. My diastolic pressure is often high. I take nifedipine, and when my systolic pressure is 140, my diastolic pressure is around 110. What kind of blood pressure medication is good for me?Doctor's answer:
According to the information about the disease, high blood pressure is usually divided into low pressure and high pressure. The range of high pressure is from 140 to 100, and the range of low pressure is from 90 to 60, with a normal range. High pressure is mainly caused by the hardening and increased elasticity of large arteries, while low pressure is mainly due to the resistance of peripheral capillaries. Therefore, the medications mentioned also need to be coordinated to reduce peripheral vascular resistance. For example, metoprolol can stabilize this condition.
