A member asked:
What is the treatment for isolated systolic hypertension? diastolic in the 60-80 range systolic 140-180.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Multiple regimens: Depending on age, a systolic of 140-180 does not mandate treatment if the diastolic is low. Ace inhibitors and beta blockers would be first line treatments if needed.
