Homocysteine 700 μmol/L, generally considered high.
Homocysteine is a sulfur-containing amino acid, the normal value is 5-15μmol/L. Homocysteine 700 μmol/L has far exceeded the normal range, indicating that the index is too high, may be related to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, such as H-type hypertension, coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, cerebral infarction, etc. Patients need to do blood pressure measurement, cardiac ultrasound, brain CT, brain MRI, etc. in time to make a clear diagnosis.
If diagnosed as H-type hypertension, you can follow the doctor's advice to use nifedipine, valsartan, folic acid tablets and other drugs to control blood pressure and homocysteine.
