Limit salt, lose weight and exercise more
Reduce sodium intake: no more than 5 grams of salt per person per day (less than the amount of salt in a beer bottle cap), pay attention to pickles, MONOsodium glutamate, soy sauce, vinegar and other salty seasoning intake.
Moderate exercise: regular moderate intensity exercise, 30 minutes each time, 5 to 7 times a week. Pay attention to keep warm when exercising; Exercise in the afternoon or evening instead of the peak time for cardiovascular events; Dress comfortably and choose a safe place. Do not exercise on an empty stomach to avoid hypoglycemia.
Quit smoking and drinking
Quit smoking and avoid passive smoking: After quitting smoking, in addition to the reduction of blood pressure, the efficacy of antihypertensive drugs will also be greatly improved.
Abstinence: Alcohol consumption increases the risk of stroke and is recommended. Abstinence is recommended for hypertensive patients who are currently drinking alcohol.
Psychological balance
Do what you like, don't be left or right by your own emotions and other people's opinions, stick to yourself, reduce mental pressure, keep in a happy mood, listen to light music, have time to travel for an outing.
Stable blood pressure, long-term standard
In general, antihypertensive therapy should be guided by the principle of stability, except for the "dangerous" rapid reduction of blood pressure caused by a sharp increase in blood pressure. General patients should be treated for 4-12 weeks to achieve the blood pressure standard, while elderly patients, patients with severe coronary artery or bilateral carotid artery stenosis and poor tolerance, the standard time should be appropriately extended.
Hypertensive patients should see a doctor regularly, adhere to long-term medication treatment under the guidance of doctors, observe the efficacy of blood pressure reduction, monitor and intervene in various risk factors, so as to obtain good efficacy. Long-term blood pressure can reduce the occurrence of stroke and other events, and greatly reduce the cost of treatment.
