Abstract

Abstract

The high-risk individual-based prevention approach is used to assess various risk factors to determine individual risk and then intervene.9 Medical interventions are often required. Controlled BP helps in lowering the burden of CVDs. Primordial prevention strategies focus on the population-wide reduction of multiple cardiovascular risk factors. Primordial Prevention, risk factor control, smoking and tobacco, are discussed in addition to stress management and promotion of physical activity. A number of pharmacological agents are available for BP control. The drugs available for hypertension management for cardiovascular risk reduction include ACE inhibitors, ARBs, CCBs, beta-blockers, diuretics and others. Indications regarding the use of these classes of drugs are given in the chapter.
