How quickly can high blood pressure be lowered?
April 21st, 2008 | by admin |Vagabonda asked:
My partner’s just been told that they have high blood pressure 160/98. How soon could this be reduced to 140/80 or better still 120/80?
Not wanting to take medicine, would hope to do this through exercises and change of diet etc.

A high blood pressure as that could be lowered in the ER by giving BP lowering medicines but there is danger in doing it quickly. A quick decrease in BP could result to dizziness and rebound hypertension (meaning the BP quickly lowers and quickly increases again). A person might collapse from a shoot down in BP. Your partner must monitor his BP for 3 consecutive days at the same hour (perferably in the morning) and must be done so after 10-15 minutes of rest from any activity. If his BP is still greater than 140/90 in 2 out of 3 days, then your partner must start taking hypertensive medications as this is a sign that indeed he/she is hypertensive and that diet and exercise may be good but might not be enough to control his blood pressure. Change in lifestyle may only work alone if there is only 1 out of 3 days that he has a high BP.

Some exercises that are reputed to aid in lowering blood pressure include Tai Chi, and Yoga. Meditation is also reputed to have a similar effect.
There are many medications that can be utilised by your GP to lower your partner’s hypertension, but I’d advise not going to the Medical practise that POSH refers to if they think that hypertensives lower blood pressure. Hypertensives increase blood pressure, whereas antihypertensives lower blood pressure.
