There are no specific set criteria to treat<unk> . This is because the condition is not yet well defined and makes it difficult for doctors to treat<unk>  as medications are usually given for patients who have<unk> . Generally, doctors will suggest people to monitor and observe their blood pressure throughout the day, preferably for 24 hours, as commonly prescribed medications available today for blood pressure may not be effective. Because<unk>  is mainly caused by anxiety, in occurrence to short term situations, doctors will often prescribe anti-anxiety medications that may help reduce any stressors. Some of the common medications to reduce anxiety includes: * Alprazolam (Xanax): oral tablet that has an enhancing effect to help prevent panic or anxiety disorders. * Clonazepam (Klonopin): oral tablet that helps prevent seizures and panic attacks. * Diazepam (Valium): may help reduce the effect of anxiety when withdrawal with alcohol intake. * Lorazepam (Ativan): Should be taken in short period of time between 2-4weeks that reduces anxiety. Long-term treatment of anxiety that requires daily medication would include: Paroxetine (Paxil), Sertraline (Zoloft), Escitalopram (Lexapro), Citalopram (Celexa). Otherwise, a prescription drug called Clonidine is used to lower blood pressure by relaxing the blood vessels. This will prevent life threatening problems such as stroke, heart attacks and kidney problems. Beta blockers are medications that often prevent paroxysmal and<unk>  as they interact with the sympathetic nervous system. Beta blockers help reduce blood pressure by blocking the effects of hormone epinephrine, also known as adrenaline. The effect of taking beta blockers can help lower the heart rate as well as help improve the blood flow by opening up the blood vessels widely. Doctors may prescribe beta blockers as one of the medications that help reduce blood pressure , including diuretics and calcium channel blockers.

Anxiety is one of the common forms of mental illness, there are increasing risks that can affect physical health problems. Therefore, to reduce stress and anxiety, reduction to smoking and alcohol, decreasing intake of salt or having regular aerobic activity are some examples of therapy that can help manage cases of<unk> . By reducing alcohol intake, the systolic blood pressure will lower by 2-4mm Hg and the diastolic blood pressure by 1–2 mm Hg. However, doctors will preferably suggest patients to monitor blood pressure at home during modification of lifestyle and behavioural changes.
