    Hypertension in the elderly may be caused by environmental factors, disease factors, and drug factors. In life, we often see patients with high blood pressure who need to take more medicine in winter and reduce medicine in summer, which is a very clear example of blood pressure changes caused by environmental factors. In summer, when the temperature is high, our blood vessels will dilate, and at the same time, the high temperature in summer will cause sweating, which will reduce the blood volume, thus causing a certain degree of drop.

    In some cases, low blood pressure is caused by diseases, such as acute myocardial infarction, severe arrhythmia, hemorrhagic shock caused by severe trauma, septic shock caused by severe infection, anaphylactic shock caused by severe allergies, diarrhea and sweating leading to hypovolemia, etc., which will threaten people's lives and need to be active. Some patients after myocardial infarction will have low blood pressure, and when taking coronary heart disease drugs orally for a long time in the later stage, it is necessary to carefully choose drugs that have an impact on blood pressure. Long-term wasting disease can also cause hypotension, and such people need to strengthen nutrition and replenish capacity on the basis of the primary disease.

    In addition, the regimen of antihypertensive drugs is not set in stone, and patients with high blood pressure who take antihypertensive drugs may also have their blood pressure dropped too low during the medication if their blood pressure is not monitored.
