هل يمكن لخسارة الوزن تقليل الحاجة إلى دواء ضغط الدم؟

إجابة من شيلدون جي شيبس، (دكتور في الطب)

إذا كنت تعاني من الوزن الزائد، فإن فقد 5 أرطال (2.3 كجم) فقط يمكن أن يخفض من ضغط الدم. وأثناء خسارة وزنك، من الممكن تقليل جرعة دواء ضغط الدم — أو حتى تتوقف عن تناوله كليًا. مع ذلك، لا تغير أدوية ضغط الدم من تلقاء نفسك. ولا تقم بذلك إلا بعد موافقة الطبيب.

وتذكر أن ضغط الدم المرتفع ليس مشكلة يمكنك حلها ثم تجاهلها. حتى وإن تمكنت من إيقاف تناول دواء ضغط الدم، فلا يزال من المهم الحفاظ على عادات صحية في حياتك. فيما يلي كيفية ذلك:

  • اتبع نظامًا غذائيًا صحيًا — يعد نظام (DASH) الغذائي، الذي يتضمن طرقًا صحية لإيقاف ارتفاع ضغط الدم، بمثابة خطة تغذية فعالة لخفض ضغط الدم.
  • حاول الوصول إلى 30 دقيقة من النشاط البدني خلال معظم أيام الأسبوع.
  • الحد من شرب الكحوليات.
  • أقلع عن التدخين.
  • حدد مواعيد زيارة منتظمة مع الطبيب لضمان متابعة ضغط دمك.
