Hypertensive patients can generally take Astragalus granules. Patients with hypertension may experience symptoms such as headache and dizziness, so it's important to monitor blood pressure regularly. Taking Astragalus granules can help lower blood pressure to some extent. In daily life, it's essential to ensure adequate sleep, maintain a relaxed mood, and avoid excessive stress. Additionally, a light diet is recommended to help control hypertension.
