Frequently asked
What is considered high blood pressure in India?
Persistently above 140/90 mmHg on home or clinic readings is hypertension. 130–139/80–89 is elevated and worth reviewing, especially with diabetes, kidney disease, or family history.
Do I need lifelong medication for high BP?
Not always. Mild hypertension picked up early can sometimes be managed with weight, salt, alcohol and activity changes. Established hypertension usually needs long-term medication — but at the lowest effective dose, reviewed yearly.
Which doctor should I see for high blood pressure in Delhi?
A consulting general physician/internist is the right starting point — they evaluate the cause, rule out secondary hypertension, manage medication, and coordinate cardiology referral only when needed.
How often should BP be checked once I'm on medication?
Home BP twice a week once stable, with a clinic review every 3–6 months. We re-test kidney function and electrolytes annually.
