Brief Answer:
Lifestyle changes and medication would be best
Detailed Answer:
Hello sir and welcome.
Thank you for writing to us.
You are rather young to be diagnosed with
hypertension, but this can be due to your lifestyle and other factors. I should rightfully start by saying that there is no hard and fast rule for blood pressure treatment, and so each patient is treated differently, based on their lifestyle and blood pressure levels. Even after initiating any one mediation, the patient has to be monitored for a response, and the medication is changed till a suitable reaction is seen. So I would request you to visit a doctor in your region, who can regularly check your blood pressure and advise medication accordingly. But the most common medications used to treat
high blood pressure are:
-Beta blockers
-
Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors
-Calcium channel blockers
-Angiotensin II receptor blockers
-Thiazide diuretics
-Alpha blockers
-
Renin inhibitors
-Combination of one or more of the above listed group of medications
Other contributing factors:
-Regular exercise
-Healthy diet
-Reduced salt intake
-Reduced stress
-Quit smoking
As for the
erectile dysfunction, this has mostly resulted due to the rise in blood pressure sir. Although your blood pressure is not very high, it does fall on the border between a normal and raised blood pressure range. It would be best to visit a doctor who you can contact regularly, who can start you on a mild medication and monitor the response and make changes accordingly; I hope you understand why this is necessary.
I hope you find my response helpful sir. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I would be more than happy to help you.
Best wishes.
