Brief Answer:
Pill in pocket is needed for such situations
Detailed Answer:
Dear Mrs,
If his blood pressure is usually controlledvwith medications, bit he sometimes has high blood pressure, then I would advise you to ask his doctor to prescribe a medication which will decrease blood pressure quickly for such cases.
The main complications of high blood pressure are heart attack and stroke.
You know about heart attack. For stroke you should be careful if he has speech disorders, can't feel or move any of limbs or one side.
Don't worry, if he takes his medication and has pill in pocket for cases of abrupt increase in high blood pressure, then nothing will happen.
Hope I could help you
Wishing a good health to your husband
