What is Hypertension?
High blood pressure, or Hypertension, is a medical disorder in which the pressure inside the blood vessels remains consistently high. When the blood pressure reading is 140/90 mmHg or higher, it is usually diagnosed as hypertension. Hypertension can lead to serious health complications such as heart disease, strokes, kidney disease, and vascular dementia if left untreated.
What are the symptoms of high blood pressure?
Hypertension symptoms vary from person to person, depending upon their condition. Some may show signs early, while others may remain asymptomatic even with abnormally high blood pressure. Some common symptoms include:
- Severe headache
- Shortness of breath
- Chest pain
- Vision problem
- Nosebleed
- Irregular heartbeat
- Blood spot in the eye
What are the causes of hypertension?
High blood pressure, often known as Hypertension, can have two main causes: Primary Hypertension and Secondary Hypertension. Primary hypertension, which is the most common type, develops gradually over time and is often linked to lifestyle factors such as a high-salt diet, lack of exercise, excessive alcohol consumption, obesity, stress, and genetics.
In contrast, Secondary Hypertension develops as a result of an existing medical condition. Such conditions include kidney disease, adrenal disorders, thyroid disorders, congenital heart defects, obstructive sleep apnea, specific prescription drugs, illicit substances, and hormonal changes during pregnancy. Determining the exact cause of hypertension is essential to determine the best treatment and to devise management strategies.

Frequently asked questions
Who can prescribe blood pressure medication?
Your GP or family doctor can prescribe medication that can help lower high blood pressure. Other drugs may also be prescribed if complications associated with high blood pressure arise.
Can I get high blood pressure medication online?
Yes, you can get high blood pressure medication refills virtually after consulting with a doctor who will provide you with a prescription. At Your Doctors Online, you can get a refill for a hypertension prescription online. After discussing your medical history and concerns, our doctor can send a prescription to your local pharmacy considering that you do not have a hypertensive emergency.
What are the risks of not taking my high blood pressure medication?
Not taking your high blood pressure medication can lead to serious health consequences. If you stop taking your medication, you may experience withdrawal symptoms such as tachycardia, agitation, nausea, and a rapid increase in blood pressure to pre-treatment levels or even higher. This can result in a hypertensive crisis, myocardial ischemia, and other severe complications.
Can you feel when your blood pressure is high?
Yes, you can feel the symptoms; however, they may not always alarming enough to be noticed instantly. These symptoms can range from severe to mild headaches, palpitations, nosebleeds, anxiety, and shortness of breath. These symptoms can also occur as a part of other conditions; therefore, it is often misdiagnosed or confused with occasional illness.
What is the first choice drug for hypertension?
Calcium channel blockers like Amlodipine, ACE inhibitors, and Thiazide diuretics have been used as to treat hypertension. These, as monotherapy or combination therapy, are used considering the patient’s overall medical status and comorbidities. Hydrochlorothiazide is used as a first-line medication for hypertension in patients with osteoporosis, edema, or calcium nephrolithiasis with hypercalciuria. The first choice of anti-hypertensive drug can vary from patient to patient and it will depend on your medical history.
How can I quickly lower my blood pressure?
To instantly lower your blood pressure, your doctor may prescribe medications like Captopril and Nifedipine. These have rapid onset in 30 minutes to 1 hour. Other medications that work in a 2-4 hour window include Clonidine and Labetalol.
When is blood pressure high enough to go to the hospital?
If your blood pressure is 180/120 or higher, you must seek immediate medical care, as this is a hypertensive crisis. However, if you experience symptoms like chest pain and shortness of breath or a severe headache, these can be signs that your blood pressure is abnormally high and it is best to seek medical attention.
How high can blood pressure go before a stroke?
It varies from person to person, but if the blood pressure is above 180/120, it can cause stroke or organ damage. Talk to a doctor if your blood pressure is above normal limits.
Can you get blood pressure medication without going to the doctor?
Blood pressure medications cannot be started without consulting a doctor as these medicines require close monitoring. However, you can get a refill at Your Doctors Online, and we can deliver it to your local pharmacy.
How are hypertension, heart disease, and stroke related?
Hypertension develops as a result of increased pressure in the blood flowing through arteries due to constriction of arteries. This force can reduce the blood flow through the heart or brain. Reduction in blood reaching the heart can lead to heart disease. Moreover, if the supply to the brain stops, the chances of stroke increase.
