SOURCE: I am 66 yr female 5'6 193lb blood pressure 138 over 73. I eat salt. A lot and have just started walking. What do I need to do to immediately start reducing my blood pressure

You should discuss this with your physician, and follow the treatment plan developed for you. Keep up your walking and increase your exercise as you go along. Eat a moderate diet that will help you lose weight. Good luck, and keep up the good work.

SOURCE: What should blood pressure be for a 65 year old female?

Like the old guidelines, the new guidelines recommend that adults ages 30 to 59 should get treatment if their blood pressure is above 140/90 mm Hg.

However, the new guidelines do give adults ages 60 and older a bit more leeway. Treatment is not automatically recommended in this age group for people with blood pressures of 140-149/90, unless they have diabetes or kidney disease.



You should discuss this with your health professional and follow their guidance and treatment plan.

What is blood pressure range for female, age 70?

Normal blood pressure in the elderly may have a higher number than the normal blood pressure at the age below. Normal blood pressure for female at age 70 is 130/80. For those aged 60 years and over, the recommended blood pressure is less than 150/90.
But if she has diabetes or kidney disease, the recommended blood pressure is below 140/90. Stay healthy.

Normal blood pressure for 85 year old female.

Hey Bernard..
Read ALL these articles...
New Guidelines Treat High Blood Pressure in Over 80s

Blood pressure goals may need to change with age Harvard Health Blog

after you read the above:

read this;..

Nevertheless, the panel makes these general recommendations for people over age 80:
  • A target systolic blood pressure (the first or top number in a two-number blood-pressure reading) should be 140 to 145 if the patient tolerates the side effects of treatment.
  • Patients should not have a systolic blood pressure below 130 or a diastolic blood pressure (the second or bottom number) below 65.
  • For very elderly patients whose high blood pressure doesn't come down with initial treatment, the combination of a type of blood pressure **** known as a RAAS blocker, a calcium antagonist, and a water pill is often effective.
  • Very elderly patients may benefit from lifestyle changes that lower blood pressure:losing weight, reducing salt in the diet, drinking less alcohol, and taking up the DASH diet.

I am Female 85 years old My blood pressure is 123/92 Is this good ?

Usually, normal blood pressure is 120/80. I think, considering your age your blood pressure (123/92) is not a problem. I think you are conscious about positive effects of meditation. To keep your health good you can practice meditation regularly.

What should my blood pressure be female 76 years old

New blood pressure guidelines state " Adults aged 60 and older should take BP meds if their blood pressure exceeds 150/90". So, if you are below that and not experiencing any other symptoms, you should be good. I'd ask my doctor also.
