This nefedipine is the only high blood pressure drug that has brought my bp down but the docs won't let me change because it constipates me severely. What can I do, have tried Miralax, benefiber, bran, cod liver oil and stool softeners always have to resort to laxatives.

I am finding myself constipated all the time as well with this medication and nothing works but laxatives. I am on 90. MG What can I do?

Have you tried discussing this with your doctor? It would not be safe for us to try and recommend anything, this site is not medical professionals and have no way of knowing your medical history.

Perhaps someone else with experience using this drug can post more info?

have itchy red bumps occurring over much of the body. I take nefedipine along with hydrochlorothiazine for bp. Isn't in the form of what I think of as a rash. Random bumps. Skin seems to become very itchy after taking pills at bedtime. Also take alfalfa, multivitamin, lysine. 80 year old female. These don't appear on the face.
