There are different types of treatment available for high blood pressure. These treatments can vary from medications to changing the lifestyle as to how a person lives.

Diuretics : Commonly known as Water Pills are mainly used as a form of medication to reduce the sodium in the body. They help in lowering the blood volume. Thiazide diuretics are a more common form of medicines which are given as a first choice for patients with blood pressure.

Angiotensin II Receptor Blockers : They are used to block the substance which narrow the blood vessels. For individuals with heart failure, these medications are most useful.

Renin Inhibitors : By slowing the Renin production, this can help greatly in lowering the blood pressure. There is a keep point to note here. This medicine is still under study, so its better not to take this as a first choice.
