Treatments
The treatment depends on how severe your blood pressure condition is. Normally, for pre-hypertensive patients the doctor will try lowering your blood pressure with lifestyle changes such as eating healthier and exercising more. If this doesn't work or if you have stage 1 or stage 2 hypertension the doctor might prescribe a medication in addition to exercising and diet. While, there are many different medications that are used to treat hypertension, I am only going to focus on one of the Angiotensin-Receptor Blockers, losartan (Cozaar).
