There is evidence of a bidirectional relationship between mental health and hypertension, which results in lower quality of life, lower rate of treatment adherence, and higher mortality among elderly individuals. It is essential to overcome known barriers and care for the elderly with high-risk factors in order to address these burdens. This review revealed that elderly with hypertension were more likely to suffer from depression and anxiety. Therefore, debunking myths, creating awareness regarding mental health, and increasing access to mental health resources through holistic community-based programs would greatly reduce such problems and optimize the chances of success in controlling hypertension-related problems.enAsia; elderly; hypertension; mental health[SDGs]SDG3antihypertensive agent; aged; anxiety; Asia; cardiovascular disease; cerebrovascular disease; community mental health service; comorbidity; depression; disease association; disease burden; elderly care; health care access; high risk population; human; hypertension; late life depression; life stress; loneliness; medication compliance; mental disease; mental health; motivation; patient compliance; Review; anxiety disorder; hypertension; mental health; quality of life; Aged; Anxiety Disorders; Asia; Humans; Hypertension; Mental Health; Quality of LifeMental health problems and hypertension in the elderly: Review from the HOPE Asia Networkreview10.1111/jch.14121332839712-s2.0-85097219445WOS:000596099600001https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85097219445
