Meds and lifestyle: Both medication and lifestyle modification is important. There are many different types of blood pressure medications which work in a variety of ways. This almost always guarantees being able to find a medication which works and does not cause side effects. Exercise, weight loss where indicated, and a low salt diet are also important.
