Patients with hypotension can generally take Jianpi Pills. Jianpi Pills are a type of traditional Chinese patent medicine primarily used to strengthen the spleen and stimulate appetite. They are particularly suitable for conditions such as spleen and stomach deficiency, abdominal distension, poor appetite, and loose stools. If patients with hypotension experience the above symptoms, they may, under medical guidance, use Jianpi Pills for调理 (regulation/treatment), which typically does not adversely affect hypotension.
