Abstract:
Clinical and pharmacological researches have been carried on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) used in the treatment for hypertension from single Chinese raw dosage form to complex compound in recent years. It is found that TCM’s effects mainly focus on integral regulation for human being’s health. Besides depressing blood pressure, furthermore, TCM also have lots of efficacy in other aspects, such as relieving left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), improving function of vascular endothelial cell and atherosclerosis, protecting kidney function, decreasing disability rate as well as enhancing quality of life. In a word, TCM should be used in preventing and treating hypertension as early as possible.
