“…The existing exercise recommendations for hypertension advocate that with regards to frequency, aerobic exercise should be undertaken on most (preferably all) days of the week and resistance exercise on 2 to 3 days in that same week [20]. With regards to intensity, the recommendation is for moderate intensity aerobic exercise (i.e., 40 to <60% of maximal oxygen uptake or heart rate reserve; [11][12][13] rating of perceived exertion on the 6-20 Borg Scale and moderate intensity dynamic resistance exercise (60% to 80% one repetition maximum) [20]. In terms of time, the duration of exercise should total 150 min or more per week [20].…”

“…Because of these effects, some authors have suggested that exercise may reduce or even replace pharmacological treatment. In this sense, Maruf et al (2016) investigated the effects of aerobic exercise combined with antihypertensive drugs on blood pressure and the number of antihypertensive drugs used by individuals with hypertension. The authors found that the combination of aerobic exercise and antihypertensive drugs reduces the number of antihypertensive drugs needed to achieve blood pressure control and enhances blood pressure control in individuals with hypertension on two antihypertensive drugs.…”

“…As a consequence, the health benefits may not be gained [15]. Specifically, in the case of patients with systemic arterial hypertension, it is expected, in addition to a decrease in blood pressure, a decrease in the amount of antihypertensive drugs used [7,12].…”

“…Given that a myriad of studies showed beneficial effects of physical exercise on the blood pressure of individuals with systemic arterial hypertension, physical exercise may complement the blood pressure-lowering effects of antihypertensive drugs [12,16], thereby reducing the number and/or dose of drugs required [7,12]. This matter is very important because a number of daily antihypertensive drugs tablets intake greater than two has been associated with no adherence to drug therapy [17].…”

Background Physical exercise is an important tool to manage systemic arterial hypertension. However, less is known about the effect of physical exercise on the number of antihypertensive drugs used by older adults. Objectives The aim was to compare the number of antihypertensive drugs used by older female adults with a low level of physical activity with the number used by those with a high level of physical activity, and to verify how many participants used more than two antihypertensive drugs. Methods Twenty-eight physically active older women with systemic arterial hypertension who participated in a physical activity program for community-dwelling older female adults were divided into two groups: participants that presented lower habitual physical activity levels were placed in group 1 and participants that presented higher habitual physical activity levels were placed in group 2, according to the Baecke questionnaire. In addition, the number of antihypertensive drugs used by participants was collected. Results The number of ingested antihypertensive tablets was 2.0 (median) for both groups investigated. There was no significant difference between groups regarding the number of antihypertensive tablets ingested (p>0.05). Although there was no statistical difference, a higher proportion of participants from the lower physical activity group used more than two antihypertensive drugs. Conclusions The level of habitual physical activity did not affect the number of antihypertensive tablets used by hypertensive women.

Background: Physical activity is an important tool to manage systemic arterial hypertension. However, less is known about the relationship of physical activity with the number of antihypertensive drugs used by older adults. The aim of this study was to compare the number of antihypertensive drugs used by older female adults (aged ≥ 60 years) with a low level of physical activity with the number used by those with a high level of physical activity, and to verify how many participants used more than two antihypertensive drugs. The habitual level of physical activity was evaluated by the Baecke questionnaireMethods: Twenty-eight physically active older women with systemic arterial hypertension who participated in a physical activity program for community-dwelling older female adults were divided into two groups: participants who presented lower habitual physical activity levels were placed in group 1 and participants that presented higher habitual physical activity levels were placed in group 2, according to the Baecke questionnaire. In addition, the number of antihypertensive drugs used by participants was collected.Results: The number of prescribed antihypertensive tablets was 2.0 (median) for both groups investigated. There was no significant difference between groups regarding the number of antihypertensive tablets prescribed (p>0.05). There was no statistical difference in proportion of participants from the lower physical activity group used more than two antihypertensive drugs.Conclusions: The level of habitual physical activity did not affect the number of antihypertensive tablets used by hypertensive elderly women.

Majority of participants reported good perceptions of PA behavior, in terms of not being discouraged by relations and friends, and of its benefits. They reported good knowledge about PA behavior. The participants demonstrated positive attitude in terms of benefits, importance, and involved risk of PA, and reported high level of participation in PA. There were significant correlations among knowledge about PA, attitude towards PA and participation in PA. PA level generally correlated significantly with attitude and participation in PA CONCLUSIONS: Perceived high level of participation in PA in this study sample can be attributed to their much knowledge and positive attitude towards PA. Increasing the knowledge about PA among individuals with hypertension by creating awareness about benefits and utilization of PA will improve their attitudes towards PA, and thereby fosters their participation in PA.
