According to Ayurveda, this imbalance is characterized mainly by increased Vata and Pitta doshas thus affecting blood and vascular health. Modern criteria classify hypertension based on revised thresholds, with elevated risks associated with systolic and diastolic pressures above normal levels. Contemporary treatments include diuretics, angiotensin receptor blockers, beta-blockers, and calcium channel blockers, each targeting different mechanisms of blood pressure regulation but potentially carrying adverse effects with long-term use.
