Can you take aspirin for high blood pressure?

You can take aspirin for hypertension. The use of aspirin does not really have much effect on hypertension or not. The Chinese guidelines for the prevention and treatment of hypertension also point out that patients with hypertension accompanied by diabetes, vascular lesions and 10-year vascular events greater than 10% can use aspirin in small doses as primary prevention. Because aspirin can prevent thrombosis and inhibit platelet aggregation, it is helpful for the unblocking and circulation of blood vessels. Hypertension itself is due to changes in blood vessel elasticity leading to changes in hemodynamics, and aspirin helps to control blood pressure in hypertensive patients. In conclusion, hypertension is not a contraindication to the use of aspirin. As long as the blood pressure is controlled at a reasonable level as prescribed by the doctor, aspirin can be used. For patients whose blood pressure is less than 150/90 mmHg, they should first actively lower their blood pressure, for example, if their blood pressure is 160 mmHg or 170 mmHg and their low pressure is 95 mmHg or 100 mmHg, in such cases, they should first suspend the use of aspirin and then continue to use aspirin after their blood pressure is under control.
