Karachi (Lord Media): Health experts have warned that discontinuing blood pressure medication without medical advice can be dangerous. Hypertension is a long-term condition that can lead to heart attacks and other diseases.<\/p>\n

Experts state that while blood pressure medications are essential for controlling blood pressure, patients may reduce their dependency by making positive lifestyle changes. These changes include weight loss, reducing salt intake, and regular exercise.<\/p>\n

Doctors caution that abruptly stopping blood pressure medication can lead to rebound hypertension, increasing the risk of a brain aneurysm or heart attack.<\/p>\n

Experts advise patients to consult their doctors before deciding to stop medication, even if their blood pressure readings return to normal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
