Russian cardiologist Sokolov advised me to measure blood pressure after rest and on both arms

May 18, 2023

Denis Sokolov, cardiologist at JSC “Medicina” in an interview RIAMO told what to do if suddenly there was a hypertensive crisis.

Pressure is very important. With any deterioration in health, it can serve as a marker indicating problems in human health.

Denis Sokolov said that in the event of a hypertensive crisis, it is necessary to immediately measure the pressure and at the same time call an ambulance. In addition, you need to take 25 mg of captopril or 10 mg of nifedipine, and also exclude drugs such as Dibazol and Papazol, because they are ineffective in this case.

In addition, the specialist recalled that it is impossible to exceed the above dosages of drugs, otherwise a sharp drop in pressure can play a cruel joke and lead to serious consequences. For prevention purposes, it will not be superfluous to periodically check the level of pressure, even if you feel well.

If the indicators stopped at around 140 to 90 mm Hg, then this is a sure sign that the cardiovascular system is malfunctioning.
