Can antihypertensive drugs damage blood vessels?

Some hypertensive patients worry that long-term use of antihypertensive drugs and some vasodilator drugs will not cause the blood vessel walls to become thin and brittle, thus leading to blood vessel rupture? First of all, let me give you a piece of mind: taking antihypertensive drugs will not adversely affect the blood vessels, let alone make them brittle and thin and thus rupture. In fact, the correct use of antihypertensive drugs is equivalent to a comprehensive maintenance of blood vessels, it can make the original long-term tension in the blood vessels gradually relaxed, the resistance to blood flow in the blood vessels become less, so that blood pressure dropped to the ideal level. From a professional point of view, vasodilator drugs are a functional expansion of blood vessels and do not change the structure of the blood vessels themselves. As for the side effects of drugs, each drug may have side effects, but those side effects of antihypertensive drugs are small compared to the harm caused to blood vessels by poor blood pressure control. Those side effects can be avoided by choosing the right antihypertensive medication under the guidance of a physician. Therefore, taking antihypertensive drugs will not make our blood vessels thin and brittle and then rupture, but it will protect our blood vessels.
