TV host and physician Alexander Myasnikov has spoken about one of the widely used approaches for managing high blood pressure, which he often mentions when discussing hypertension with patients.
According to him, one of the long-established medication classes used in blood pressure management includes diuretics, which help the body regulate fluid balance. He noted that such medications are often used as part of a broader treatment plan and may enhance the effect of other prescribed therapies when used under medical supervision.
Speaking on the “About the Most Important” program on the Russia 1 TV channel, Myasnikov emphasized that certain diuretic medications have been used in clinical practice for many years as part of standard hypertension management strategies.
Experts note that treatment for high blood pressure should always be individualized and guided by a healthcare professional. Lifestyle factors such as diet, physical activity, stress management, and regular monitoring also play an important role in maintaining healthy blood pressure levels.
