What doctors prescribe for hypertension
A recent Acute Hypertensive Emergency makes one research on how to deal with one, and even examine the drugs being administered. It is good we now have internet; and that there are heart specialists the author knows of specialist from Philippine Heart Center.
The patient is in the province in her 60s and experienced shortness of breath, dizziness, general weakening of the body and chest pains (a heart attack?) She was put on losartan (an angiotensin receptor blocker known for treating long term essential hypertension and that acts on kidney) a diuretic, a digitalis and Vit B complex. The family spent a good 5 figures for having her watched in a hospital and her bp remained unstable. The chest pains and shortness of breath were still there. BP shot up to 180/120 when the multivitamins was given. (It has been stopped when the watcher noticed the causal effect) The BP is now down to 120/90.

Yesterday, I had new glasses outfitted. The edges of the lenses were chipped and besides, I have been experiencing blurred vision lately. When my eyes were checked, the optometrist said I was progressing towards cataract. Probably because of my diabetes. The grade a the left went up (this had progressive sign of cataract) while the right eye's grade went down. But the thought of having cataract of course saddened me. So I researched on cataract. (Although we had students who were cataract surgeons)
What are cataracts? They are blind spots or opacities in the eye lenses brought about by advancing age. It comes earlier with elderly with diabetes (I am 64 with signs of diabetes) About half of 65 years or above would have cataracts (so that puts me in the statistics) and 1,500,000 cataract operations are done annually in the USA. (In the Philippines, because of Philhealth provision there is a slew of cataract operations) Many opha have free cataract operations in the south.
In India, there is the Aravind hospital that caters to many Indian poor who have cataracts for as low as $5@ operations
