Hypertension is a condition in which a patient's blood pressure is higher than normal, namely 140/90 mmHg. Seeing the reality that antihypertensive treatment causes several unwanted drug reactions and patients who are treated with complaints and symptoms of hypertension will get antihypertensive prescriptions such as amlodipine or captopril.

This study uses an observational method that is descriptive in nature. Data collection was carried out prospectively, namely direct interviews.
