List of tablets for headaches and high blood pressure

At what pressure can a headache occur?

A headache can occur both with high and low blood pressure. This is due to impaired blood flow, as a result of which the body lacks oxygen and nutrients. The heart and brain suffer the most.

High blood pressure occurs with throbbing, sharp pain, which is concentrated in the temporal and occipital zones. Poor health persists for a long time (from several hours to 2-3 days). There is a feeling of tightness and heaviness in the eyes. All symptoms are aggravated by any head movements.

Low pressure leads to throbbing, dull, pressing pain in the temple, back of the head or forehead. The pain is constant and concentrated on one side of the head. The patient feels nausea, dizziness and loss of strength.

The mechanism of malaise with high blood pressure

Why does a headache begin to hurt when pressure shifts from normal? The vessels of a healthy person are able to change the diameter of the lumen under the force of blood pressure during movement. This allows the body to adapt to the influence of various unfavorable factors.

In case of loss of elasticity and firmness, vascular spasm develops and jumping pressure is recorded. Lack of oxygen and nutrients affects the functioning of all brain structures. Numerous symptoms develop, including headache.

The reason that the pressure has risen can be stress, violation of the rest and work schedule, bad habits, excess weight or insufficient nutrition, hypothermia, excessive physical activity. Diseases of internal organs are a common cause of hypertension or hypotension.

Each person can determine at what pressure his head starts to hurt. To do this, it is enough to keep a diary and indicate measurement indicators during headaches. It is also important to indicate the reasons that led to this condition.

Only a doctor can tell you what medications you can take for high and low blood pressure. Taking into account the nature of the pain, he will select medications and prescribe the optimal dosage and duration of treatment.

For headaches due to arterial hypertension, you should not take medications that increase your blood pressure. For example, you should not drink “Citramon” for pain and increased blood pressure. It contains caffeine, which further increases blood pressure on the vessels.

Associated symptoms

The increase in pressure occurs due to the increased impact of blood on the walls of blood vessels during movement. External and internal unfavorable factors can lead to such a problem.

High blood pressure isn't just a headache. Associated symptoms that worsen well-being include:

  • feeling of heat in the body, especially in the face and neck;
  • body coordination in space is impaired, dizziness;
  • numbness of the limbs, redness of the face;
  • constantly feel sick and may even vomit;
  • sweating increases;
  • breathing becomes difficult, shortness of breath appears.

If your blood pressure fluctuates, and against the background of the symptoms listed above, your body temperature has risen, vomiting has appeared, your consciousness has become clouded, your vision has deteriorated, you need to urgently call an ambulance.

Increased blood pressure and headaches during pregnancy

Expectant mothers who cannot take almost any of their usual medications may also experience headaches. Moreover, this often happens precisely because of increased blood pressure, which may first arise during pregnancy. Also, headaches in women can provoke hormonal changes, even not very acute stressful situations. Doctors do not advise pregnant women to use traditional pharmacological agents: but even if the patient intends to resort to traditional medicine, each prescription must be agreed with doctors.

During pregnancy, Analgin and Aspirin are strictly prohibited. Citramon is prescribed in a minimum dosage at the discretion of the doctor. Conditionally acceptable pharmacological products are No-shpa and Paracetamol. Panadol can give a good effect.

Headache classification

The classification of headaches helps specialists select the correct and effective treatment that can quickly relieve symptoms and prevent a reoccurrence. At what pressure does this or that type of pain occur? Painful sensations are most often observed against the background of hypertension.

Vascular

The vascular variety is characterized by intense, throbbing pain in the temples and back of the head, a feeling of constriction and heaviness. With any movement (sneezing, bending, coughing), the pain intensifies.

The causes of pain may be:

  • disruption of blood flow from the brain;
  • vasospasm;
  • poor vascular tone;
  • lack of oxygen supply;
  • compression of the vertebral arteries;
  • impaired blood circulation.

All these factors influence the development of pain in hypertension. Sedative and antispasmodic drugs help cope with pain. Aromatherapy, acupuncture, and massage are considered effective.

Liquorodynamic

This type of pain develops due to pressure changes. The outflow of cerebrospinal fluid from certain areas of the brain is disrupted, and at the same time intracranial pressure increases. As a result of a large accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid, unpleasant, painful sensations develop.

With liquorodynamic pain, the patient is simultaneously worried about dizziness, decreased visual acuity, nausea and general weakness, and the heart rate decreases. The pain is dull, bursting in nature and intensifies during physical activity, movement, and taking a vertical position of the body. The condition is characteristic of a hypertensive crisis, when vasospasm occurs.

Treatment includes diuretics, antispasmodics, vitamin complexes, and immunomodulators.

Ischemic

Spasm of blood vessels and a decrease in their resistance leads to hypoxia of internal organs and tissue swelling. The pain is dull, squeezing, in one area of ​​the skull. Additionally, nausea ending in vomiting, dizziness, loss of orientation, and poor coordination of the body in space are of concern. Memory deteriorates, sleep is disturbed, appetite decreases.

Treatment is carried out with antispasmodic, neurotropic, combination drugs, ACE inhibitors, antioxidants, and beta-blockers are prescribed.

Muscle tension

This type of pain develops due to severe fatigue, stress, anxiety, and a sedentary lifestyle. As a result, muscle strain occurs in the shoulder girdle, neck and head. Blood flow in the affected area is disrupted. Compressive pain is accompanied by nausea, decreased visual acuity, dizziness, tinnitus, and impaired attention. The patient's sensitivity to odors, light, and noise increases.

You can eliminate pain with anti-inflammatory non-steroidal tablets and antidepressants. To prevent the pain from returning, you need to normalize your emotional state, adjust your diet, and rest regime.

Neuralgic

The cause of pain in the head can be emotional stress. Depression, stress, and neuroses lead to increased blood and intracranial pressure, as well as compression of the trigeminal nerve. The pain occurs suddenly and affects one side of the head. The pain is sharp, burning, shooting in nature, penetrates the eye sockets and forehead area, intensifies by touching the scalp.

Treatment is based on medication and physiotherapeutic procedures. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, muscle relaxants, and antidepressants help eliminate foci of inflammation.

Antispasmodic drugs


Relieves spasm of vascular walls, expands the lumen of blood vessels. The active substance blocks nerve signals entering muscle fibers, relaxing them. As a result, the pressure decreases and the pain goes away.

It is recommended to use it for hypertension, when persistent narrowing of cerebral vessels occurs. The drugs are also indicated for spasms caused by dysfunctions of the nervous system and progressive atherosclerosis. All these conditions can provoke vascular spasm.

Often used and characterized by a small number of side effects:

  • "No-Shpa";
  • "Dibazol";
  • "Papaverine";
  • "Duspatalin."

Alpha blockers

Drugs that block different types of adrenergic receptors for a certain period of time. Adrenergic receptors react by contracting the vascular walls to an increased release of adrenaline. Blocking them prevents vasoconstriction and eliminates headaches of vascular origin.

Selective drugs (“Doxazosin”, “Prozazin”) are suitable for long-term use in the treatment of hypertension, non-selective drugs (“Phentolamine”, “Tropafen”) have a short-term effect, they are used in emergency cases (relieving a hypertensive crisis). They help eliminate sharp headaches during a crisis and prevent conditions with prolonged pain syndrome.

It is advisable to take alpha blockers together with diuretics. It is recommended to take it in small doses. An orthostatic reaction may develop (a sharp decrease in pressure, fainting while the body assumes a vertical position).

Antidepressants

Their action is due to the influence on the level of neurotransmitters - biological substances of the brain that transmit information from one nerve cell to another. These drugs increase the ability of neurons (nerve cells of the brain) to perceive impulses transmitted by neurotransmitters (serotonin, norepinephrine, dopamine). Thus, antidepressants eliminate brain dysfunctions that cause depressive disorders. Such conditions cause increased cerebral vascular tone and contribute to headaches.

The drug is indicated for headache syndrome caused by prolonged mental disorders with a depressive nature and elevated blood pressure against this background.

Sometimes it is a headache, which lasts a long time and returns again and again, that becomes the cause of neuroses. A neurotic disorder increases blood pressure even more, resulting in a vicious circle. Antidepressants help relieve anxiety and pain.

The most commonly prescribed tablets for hypertension are:

  • "Amitriptyline";
  • "Imipramine";
  • "Nafazadone";
  • "Mianserin."

Benzodiazepines

Another name for this group of drugs is tranquilizers. Unlike the previous group of drugs, tranquilizers are not taken for a long time, because they can be addictive in humans. They are used in one-time small courses to relieve symptoms of severe stress, eliminate excessive stimulation of the nervous system, and get rid of phobias. These drugs are not suitable for the treatment of chronic depression, but they have a good calming effect in minor episodic nervous disorders and borderline mental states. They act faster.

Tranquilizer tablets are designed to calm, relax, and induce sleep. Benzodiazepines reduce the excitation of nerve fibers by acting on bezodiazepine receptors on neurons and increasing the amount of gamma-aminobutyric acid (an inhibitory neurotransmitter). Examples of tranquilizers for headache relief:

  • "Midazolam";
  • "Valium";
  • "Diazepam";
  • "Relanium".

M-anticholinergics

These tablets contain elements that inhibit the activity of muscarinic-sensitive cholinergic receptors. Such receptors are located in muscle cells and perform the function of transmitting contractile impulses to the nerve endings of blood vessels.

By relieving smooth muscle tone, these drugs relax and dilate blood vessels, and thereby relieve headaches with high blood pressure.

Examples of such medicines are:

  • "Spasmomen";
  • "Atropine";
  • "Platifillin."

Types of pain syndrome

At different stages of hypertension, pain changes in character and intensity. How does pain in the head appear when pressure levels increase:

  • Initially, the pain is periodic and episodic in nature and can be easily dealt with by doing acupressure, applying a compress or drinking soothing herbs.
  • In advanced cases, the pain becomes severe and does not go away for a long time. Nausea, dizziness, impaired coordination of movements and attention are added.

Timely consultation with a doctor and diagnostic examination allows you to identify the true cause of health problems. Attacks of hypertension can be completely stopped or stable remission achieved.

For mild hypertension

The first and second degrees of hypertension are characterized by an increase in pressure to 140-150/100 mm Hg. Art. The condition is accompanied by periodic pain in the head and neck, chest, dizziness, breathing problems, and increased heart rate.

For severe hypertension

Pressure in severe hypertension exceeds 180/110 mmHg. Art. The patient has a very bad headache, sweating increases, limbs swell, nausea and vomiting bother him, and coordination of movements is impaired.

Non-drug help for headaches caused by high blood pressure

Immediately try to ventilate the room you are in. If the numbers are not very high and your head already hurts, you can go outside. If it is not hot there, but normal, moderately cool weather, you should feel better.

You can also do the following:

  • Try to calm down. If you get nervous, you will only make the pain worse.
  • Turn off the TV and computer. If you still want to be distracted by the video on the monitor, let it be some kind of calm film.
  • You can turn on relaxing music - the sounds of nature vibrationally suit our body, they can relax the body, relieve tension that accompanies the exacerbation of hypertension.
  • With light movements, without pressure, massage the temporal lobes and neck.
  • Reduce the amount of liquid you drink per day. Avoid caffeinated drinks.
  • Reduce salt intake to a minimum.
  • Stand with your feet on the heated salt.

Even before a hypertensive attack occurs, in order to prevent it, do 100 jumps every morning. This will be your exercise, which can really slow down the progression of the disease.

What medications help cope with headaches due to high blood pressure?

Depending on the cause that led to the rise in blood pressure, different groups of medications can help, and there are many of them. These can be tranquilizers, antispasmodics, anti-inflammatory and other drugs. The doctor prescribes the appropriate medication, taking into account the patient’s condition, age, and weight.

Treatment can be carried out using medications, folk remedies, massages, herbal medicine, and physiotherapeutic procedures also help.

Antispasmodic

Vessels can lose their elasticity and firmness for many reasons. The formation of cholesterol plaques and neurological diseases lead to the appearance of spasms. Antispasmodics help relieve unpleasant symptoms only at the beginning of the disease. They have an analgesic effect. Antispasmodics cannot be taken for a long time; they are used as an ambulance.

Myotropic antispasmodics are indicated for severe vasospasm, which has led to increased blood pressure. They dilate blood vessels and activate the supply of oxygen and nutrients to tissues. As a result, the pain goes away. Such drugs as “Papaverine”, “Revalgin”, “No-shpa”, “Dexalgin” are considered effective.

Neurotropic antispasmodics block nerve impulses, as a result, muscles relax and pain disappears. Popular medications include: Buscopan, Arpenal, Aprofen.

Other medications for antispasmodic pain in the head include: magnesium sulfate, Phenobarbital, Bendazol, Dibazol, Tempalgin. The active substance of these medications relaxes muscles and promotes vasodilation. Due to this, blood flow through the vessels is restored, pain is reduced and blood pressure is normalized.

Pharmacological

Initially, pills are selected that quickly relieve pain. This should be done by a qualified specialist, since the symptom develops against the background of increased blood pressure. A medicine should be chosen that effectively relieves pain and normalizes blood pressure.

Anticholinergic

This group of drugs is prescribed if neuralgia is the cause of deterioration in health. The effect of the active components is aimed at blocking the production of acetylcholine, which excites nerve cells. Muscle spasm is eliminated, blood pressure is reduced, pain disappears:

  • "Temekhin" dilates blood vessels and has a pronounced antispasmodic effect. Prescribe 1 mg 3-4 times a day. The course of treatment can last a month. Allowed to be combined with other antihypertensive drugs.
  • "Benzohexonium" is available in the form of an injection solution. After administration of the medicine, a decrease in pressure is observed within 5-10 minutes. During the day it is allowed to administer the medicine up to 4 times.
  • "Gigronium" is available in powder form for injection.

Take medications with caution, strictly observing the dosage. They quickly relieve not only pain, but also sharply lower blood pressure. Side effects often develop.

Tranquilizers

In case of a sharp increase in systolic and diastolic pressure, as well as the appearance of tachycardia, increased sweating, chills, dry mouth and severe pressing pain in the head, tranquilizers are prescribed. Medicines in this group include: Phenazepam, Xanax, Teraligen, Valium.

“Phenazepam” has an anticonvulsant, hypnotic, sedative effect, relaxes muscles, eliminates feelings of anxiety, fear, and reduces emotional stress. The action of the active substance lasts up to 6 hours. The duration of treatment is two weeks. Towards the end of the treatment course, the dosage is gradually reduced.

Medicines in this group may cause side effects. Their use is advisable in cases of prolonged stress, anxiety, and restlessness.

Anti-inflammatory non-steroidal drugs (PNS)

Nonsteroidal drugs do not change blood pressure parameters and do not act on the cause of the disease; they only relieve symptoms. Treatment is carried out with such medications as Naproxen, Diclofenac, Voltaren and is carried out in courses.

Any of these medications helps eliminate pain and inflammation. But they are prescribed with caution to elderly patients, as well as people with heart pathologies.

Diclofenac suppresses inflammation and reduces pain. It starts to work quickly. Prescribe 25-50 mg 2-3 times a day for two weeks.

Diuretics

If the volume of circulating blood increases, swelling develops, headaches appear and blood pressure increases. Diuretics will help remove excess fluid from the body: Furosemide, Indapamide, Hypothiazide, Triphas, Clopamide.

Diuretics remove calcium and sodium along with urine. Any of these drugs relieves headaches, reduces circulating blood volume and restores blood pressure.

Furosemide has a hypotensive effect due to the removal of sodium chloride and relaxation of smooth muscles. Reduces the load on the heart by expanding the lumen of large veins. The action begins after 30 minutes and lasts for two hours. The list of side effects is long, so the drug is taken strictly as prescribed by the doctor.

Combination drugs

Combination medications are based on several active substances. They are prescribed as symptomatic treatment. The drugs have vasoconstrictor and analgesic properties: Tempalgin, Brustan, Brinerdin, Askofen.

The effect after taking the medicine occurs quickly, and the effect lasts for a long time.

Antidepressants

Headaches and hypertension can result from periodic exposure to stressful and conflict situations. During times of stress and excitement, adrenaline is produced rapidly. The hormone leads to disruptions in the functioning of the vascular system.

Constant attacks can lead to depression, so antidepressants come to the rescue. They calm the nervous system and enhance the effect of painkillers. Popular drugs include: Amitriptyline, Paroxetine, Clomipramine.

Medicines in this group have a number of side effects such as drowsiness, fatigue, apathy, and loss of appetite. Therefore, it is important to follow the dosage and duration of treatment prescribed by your doctor.

ACE inhibitors

Inhibitors expand the lumen of blood vessels, improve the condition, eliminate pain: “Perindopril”, “Captopril”, “Enalapril”, “Ramipril”, “Enap”, “Cozaar”. They can be prescribed to patients with high blood pressure, as well as heart failure and diabetes.

Captopril tablets have vasodilating properties and help with high blood pressure. They can be taken as a course or used as an emergency aid. In any case, only the doctor calculates the dosage. Captopril relaxes blood vessels and normalizes blood flow.

Any medicine in this group is well tolerated by the patient, side effects rarely develop and can be combined with other medicines. Additionally, the product has an antioxidant effect. Prescribe 25 mg twice a day.

Treatment

Therapeutic treatment includes an integrated approach: medications, physiotherapeutic and traditional methods, changing the daily routine. It should be aimed at identifying and eliminating the causes of headaches.

With significantly elevated blood pressure, a severe headache requires immediate treatment. But since drugs for pain relief have different effects and have side effects, self-medication is unacceptable.

What you need to drink to eliminate headaches accompanied by high blood pressure can only be decided by a doctor (based on the results of the diagnosis).

Selective beta blockers

The drugs neutralize the effect of adrenaline on pain receptors, promote vasodilation, actively reduce blood pressure, relieve headaches that occur with high blood pressure, reduce the heart rate and reduce the body's need for oxygen.

Let's list what temporarily relieves headaches with high blood pressure, and what medications help for a long time. It can be:

  • "Atenolol";
  • "Nebivolol";
  • "Bisoprolol";
  • "Tenor."

They are not recommended for acute heart failure, bradycardia, arterial hypotension, cardiogenic shock. A cardiologist will tell you what to do, what medications to use in case of pressure drops and surges, if you have a headache.

Calcium channel blockers

The drugs have an analgesic effect, block excess calcium in the cells of the heart muscle and smooth muscles, increase the diameter of blood vessels, improve blood circulation and provide the myocardium with oxygen.

Headache due to hypertension is treated with the following medications:

  • "Amlopril";
  • "Normodipina";
  • "Cinnarizina"
  • "Amlovasa."

Contraindications are: decreased blood pressure, previous myocardial infarction, angina attack, pregnancy and breastfeeding, as well as individual intolerance to the components.

Treatment should be strictly under the supervision of a physician.

Myotropic antispasmodics

In terms of their pharmacological parameters, the drugs are identical to calcium blockers. They are prescribed in the initial stage of the disease. They help relieve vascular spasm, normalize blood circulation, and reduce pain. Among them:

  • "Nitroglycerine";
  • "Drotaverine";
  • "Papaverine";
  • "Mebeverine";
  • "Benziclan";
  • "Spazmolgon."

It is recommended to use all medications strictly as prescribed by your doctor.

Here's what you can take for high blood pressure, which is accompanied by a headache:

  • "Fosinopril";
  • "Lisinopril";
  • "Enalapril";
  • "Captopril."

Long-term use increases the risk of joint fractures due to changes in bone structure.

Diuretics

Diuretics speed up the rate of urine formation and reduce tissue swelling. They remove excess sodium and calcium from the body along with urine.

Diuretics are used for cardiovascular diseases, high blood pressure, kidney and liver diseases, accompanied by edema. It can be:

  • "Furosemide";
  • "Ethacrynic acid";
  • "Lasix";
  • "Hypothiazide";
  • "Dichlorothiazide";

The following medications are used to treat the disease:

  • "Sidnofen";
  • "Oxymetazoline";
  • "Pindolol";
  • "Esminol scraper."
  • "Alfuzosin";
  • "Nitsergoline".

After consulting a cardiologist, you can understand what to do, as well as what medications will help when your headache is very bad.

Sartans

Sartans are cardiological drugs with a long-term effect, used in the fight against high blood pressure. They improve cardiac activity, have an antiarrhythmic effect, reduce the risk of strokes, and reduce oxygen starvation of tissues.

The following drugs are used to treat headaches with high blood pressure:

  • "Valsartan";
  • "Azilsartan";
  • "Telmisartan";

  • "Gidazepam";
  • "Noofen";
  • "Afobazole".

What tranquilizers should be taken for pain, and what will help with high blood pressure, will be prescribed by the attending physician.

Analgesics

The drugs have a pronounced analgesic effect, but do not eliminate the cause of the pain. Analgesics include:

  • "Citramon";
  • "Paracetamol";
  • "Ibuprofen";
  • "Nurofen".

Frequent use of analgesics for headaches and severely elevated blood pressure can lead to addiction, and in the future become a provocateur of cephalalgia.

Traditional ways

A proven way to combat headaches is the daily consumption of green tea, which reduces tension in the walls of blood vessels and increases their elasticity, lowering blood pressure.

Tea with chamomile and added sugar also has a calming effect, helps dilate blood vessels, lower blood pressure, and increase vitality.

There are other ways to overcome headaches:

  • Corn.

Helps normalize blood pressure. To prepare, you need to boil 3 tbsp. corn grains in 500 ml of water. Leave for 10 minutes, strain and consume one cup every other day.

  • Mistletoe.

Relieves spasm of blood vessels. To make tea, you will need 30 g of mistletoe leaves and 20 g of hawthorn flowers. Pour boiling water over the prepared mixture. Let it sit. Drink tea morning and evening.

Contraindications to the use of drugs

Many drugs for headaches with high blood pressure are prohibited from being prescribed to pregnant women, as well as persons under 18 years of age. Other common contraindications are ulcerative formations in the gastrointestinal tract, dermatitis, hepatitis, blood diseases, and bronchial asthma.

Prescribe with caution to patients with kidney and liver diseases, heart and blood vessels, allergic reactions and diabetes mellitus.

Side effects may develop during drug therapy:

  • tinnitus appears, vision and coordination of movements are impaired;
  • Abdominal pain occurs, nausea occurs, stool is disrupted, and dry mouth is bothersome;
  • shortness of breath and bronchospasm may appear;
  • heart rate changes, chest pain may bother you;
  • increased headache and dizziness.

Adverse reactions often develop if the doctor’s recommendations are not followed. You cannot increase or decrease the dosage, prolong or stop taking pills on your own.

Folk remedies

Decoctions based on peony, valerian and thyme are excellent for eliminating headaches due to hypertension. Pour 250 ml of boiling water over a spoonful of each herb, leave for 20 minutes and take half a glass before meals.

Potato juice can also lower blood pressure in hypertension and eliminate additional symptoms. All you need to do is squeeze the juice from the root vegetable and consume 1 teaspoon three times a day.

Traditional healers advise getting rid of migraines with currant or viburnum juice. They need to be diluted with water in a 1:1 ratio and add 1 spoon of honey. Drink instead of tea several times throughout the day.

What can you take at home?

If the pressure rises, you need to take a horizontal position, placing several pillows under your head. It is imperative to ensure the flow of fresh air into the room.

Traditional medicine will help lower blood pressure:

  • Make a hot bath for your feet. Place your feet in water at a temperature of 40 degrees for 15 minutes.
  • You can stick a mustard patch to the neck area.
  • Acupressure helps reduce pain. Using smooth circular movements, massage begins from the earlobes, slowly moving to the back of the head.
  • Tea with chamomile and lemon helps to relax the muscles and nervous system. Pour boiling water over the herb, leave for 30 minutes, then add lemon zest and sugar.

  • For headaches, you can drink motherwort tincture. Dissolve 40 drops of tincture in 100 ml of water.
  • Valerian tablets help relieve attacks of dizziness and pain. You need to drink them twice a day.
  • Clover tincture is easy to prepare. The dried flowers of the plant are poured with vodka and left for two weeks. You need to take the medicine at the first sign of pain, 30 ml.

Traditional medicine can be used as independent therapy only in the initial stages of the problem. In other cases, it must be combined with the main treatment. Only a specialist can prescribe good and effective medications.

You cannot drink strong tea or coffee, take a hot bath, or smoke. It is dangerous to take medications on your own (especially caffeine-based ones) in an attempt to reduce pain symptoms.

Preventing headaches

To prevent headaches and increased levels of upper and lower pressure, you must follow the preventive rules:

  • It is imperative to lead a healthy lifestyle.
  • Eat right (exclude salty, fatty, spicy, fried foods), avoid excess body weight.
  • Treat infectious and inflammatory diseases in a timely manner, preventing transition to the chronic stage.
  • Avoid overwork.
  • It is advisable to eliminate bad habits.
