Hypertension is currently one of the most common clinical diseases. We often hear about essential hypertension, pregnancy-induced hypertension, etc.

Of course, no matter what type of hypertension, blood pressure reduction is urgent, but different types of hypertension lower blood pressure methods and selected drugs may be slightly different.
