Dr. Yuan Xiaoying
If blood pressure drops noticeably after taking the medication, this indicates that the drug is having a certain therapeutic effect. Conversely, if the decline is very slow, it may suggest that the condition is already under control—or, alternatively, that the blood pressure has plateaued and will not decrease further. In such cases, the condition could potentially worsen. Therefore, it is essential to promptly visit a hospital for evaluation. If you experience any discomfort, seek medical attention immediately.
