Are there any obstacles related to the treatment of high blood pressure?

This means the way it gets absorbed and is later eliminated will be different compared to younger patients. Some drugs might stay in your system for longer, and when this happens, there is a higher risk of side effects.

Most of the time, seniors need to take more medications at the same time, and this can lead to even more side effects. Even more, many of them already struggle with problems like bad balance, fatigue, or feeling dizzy, and side effects from medication can make them worse.

High blood pressure meds are some of these side effect-causing medications, and this is why it is so important to talk to your doctor and make sure to get the most suitable medications for you and reduce the side effects as much as possible.

Let’s see what some of the side effects of high blood pressure meds are and find out how to manage them.
