• Medications: Oral medications like metformin or insulin therapy.
• Continuous monitoring: Blood sugar monitoring and regular check-ups to prevent complications.

Hypertension is a condition where blood pressure remains consistently high, increasing the risk of heart disease, stroke, and kidney failure.

Treatment Options:

• Medications: ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers, or diuretics to control blood pressure.
