Can hypertensive patients stay up late to work

Patients with hypertension should not stay up late to work, because long-term staying up late will lead to increased excitability of sympathetic nerves and excessive secretion of catecholamines and other hormones in the body, which can easily cause blood pressure fluctuations and even cause cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. Patients with hypertension need to actively improve their lifestyle, combine work and rest, avoid straining and staying up late, ensure adequate sleep, quit smoking and limit alcohol, eat a light diet, reduce the intake of sodium and fat, eat more vegetables, arrange work and life rationally, live a regular life, and increase exercise, control weight, etc. In addition to actively improving lifestyle, we should also reasonably choose blood pressure lowering drugs to control blood pressure in the target range for a long time, and actively control other cardiovascular risk factors while lowering blood pressure.
