All hypertension medications aim to relax the vessels and reduce blood pressure.

The pressure of blood in your vessels depends upon their elasticity. With age, as the elasticity decreases, the pressure increases. Sometimes, the pressure increases due to certain health conditions, which can become harmful if left untreated for a long time, developing into hypertension.
What is the first choice drug for hypertension?
Calcium channel blockers like amlodipine, ACE inhibitors and Thiazide diuretics have been used as the first choice of drug. These, as monotherapy or combination therapy, are used considering the patient's overall medical status and comorbidities. Hydrochlorothiazide is used as first-line medication for hypertension in patients with osteoporosis, edema, or calcium nephrolithiasis with hypercalciuria.
How can I quickly lower my blood pressure?
For instantly lowering the blood pressure, your doctor may prescribe you medications like captopril and nifedipine for rapid onset in 30 minutes to 1 hour. Other medications that work in a 2-4 hour window include clonidine and labetalol.

What painkillers can I take with high blood pressure?
Your doctor may prescribe nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like acetaminophen (Tylenol) because other NSAIDs, like naproxen and ibuprofen, may raise your blood pressure.
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; any fluctuations above this. Talk to a doctor if your blood pressure is above limits.

As per different ages, the normal range of blood pressure varies. For example, for children 2-13 years old, the normal range of systolic pressure is 80-120; for teens 14-18 years old, the normal range is 90-120; for 19-40 years adults, the range is 95-135, while for 41-60 age adults, the average blood pressure range is 110-145.
