I went to the doctor and was told that I had very high blood pressure and needed to do something about it. The doctor suggested that I quit drinking because it could help to lower my blood pressure. How long does it take for your blood pressure to lower after you quit drinking alcohol?

When you first start detoxing, your blood pressure will slightly increase as your body goes through withdrawal from alcohol. Once your body has detoxed, your blood pressure should start to lower immediately.

The amount of time it takes for blood pressure to lower after you stop drinking varies from person to person. Most people notice a drop within a week or two of stopping drinking.
