Hypertension: Drugs
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will make an assessment of the adequacy of guidance issued by his Department on the best time to take blood pressure medication.
Answered by Karin Smyth
The National Health Service monitors evidence on all interventions and updates our public facing guidance accordingly. The routine review of blood pressure medication guidance on the NHS website is due in December 2024. However, the timing of medication is a clinical decision which is made by doctors, and depends on several patient factors.
