Headache Pain Pressure

Initially in 2011 I noticed severe left side body pain + headache nusea. Later on left side body pain is not troubling me much though I have been suffering since then for left eye pain+ headache. I was diagonised for Cervical Spondylysis and of and on I had taken paracetamol + the petril+ vertin dosage at that time . after that sos when the headace is severe I was taking naproxyn. Now it is a daily trouble as I have normally one side headache most of time and on seeing the blood pressure history I have now started cardec 2.5 medicine . Even after taking this medice my headache problem is persistent. If I am not at work I am alright but if I am going to my job the headache would definitely be there by evening. ## Dear Anita I am having the same symptoms and I have visited so many doctors...

Is 10 mg. Less than 10/12 mg ## Hello, Connie! How are you? Can you be more specific as to what medications you're asking about? The 10/12mg denotes a medication that contains 2 active ingredients and then the 10mg would contain just one, so I'm afraid I can't be more specific, without having more information. The FDA lists the typical side effects of blood pressure medications as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, stomach pain and hypotension.

Can I take norco for my fibromyalgia pain along with my blood pressure med (amlodipine besylate 10mg)? ## I didn't find any problems or interactions listed between these medications, though it is always best to double check to be sure. However, I can also tell you that pain is more dangerous for your blood pressure, than taking a medication to ease it. The FDA does warn that Norco carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation. Are you on any other medications?

I have tried 5 different Blood Pressure Medications. All are giving me side effects of depression, loss of energy, trouble concentrating, joint pain, swelling, weight gain. Anyone here know of a Blood Pressure Medication with few side effects? ## Hello, Julie! How are you? I understand what you're going through. I rant the gamut of them myself, it took about a year to finally find ones that worked for me, without making me totally miserable. Thus, the ones I suggest you speak to your doctor about are Atacand and Labetalol, with the latter being known to cause the least side effects. You may still experience some, short-term, such as nausea, dizziness and headache, but they usually wear off after a few weeks, as your body gets used to the medication. Is there anything else I can help...

I JUST BEGAN THE NEW PRESCRIPTION DRUG FOR FIBROMYALGIA THIS WEEK CALLED SAVELLA IN PILL FORM. MY BLOOD PRESSURE HAS RISEN FROM AN AVERAGE OF 122/70 TO 155/85. HAS ANYONE ELSE HAD THIS PROBLEM? WILL IT REGULATE BACK DOWN AFTER BODY ADJUSTS. OTHERWISE SURE FEEL A WHOLE LOT BETTER THEN WHEN ON CYMBALTA FOR SAME DISEASE. COULD IT BE A WITHDRAWAL EFFECT FROM THE CYMBALTA? I WENT OFF THAT 24 HOURS BEFORE STARTING SAVELLA. HEADACHES, JITTERY, HYPER WERE NOTICED IMMEDIATELY, THAT IS GETTING BETTER EACH DAY. ## Your experience parralels mine.

Hi, Im taking amoxillin 875mg and Im having Bad headaches. My blood pressure was high when I check . It's that a side effect from amoxicillin 875? ## Hello, Sonie! How are you? The headaches can be a normal side effect of this antibiotic, as reported by the FDA. You may also experience nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. How high was your blood pressure? This medication hasn't been known to cause that, but the pain from the severe headache may cause elevations. Are you on any other medications? Have you consulted your medical practitioner?

Why would my doctor prescribe gabapentin when my blood pressure is difficult to control? It's 100/150 at times. I was complaining to my Dr that my hands are becoming difficult to control; I drop & throw things. Very miserable not being able to hold a phone, etc. ## I honestly can't say, since blood pressure elevations can be a side effect of it, as reported by the FDA. Gabapentin is an anticonvulsant that can also be used to treat certain types of nerve pain and some mood disorders. Its other typical side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, mood swings, and weight gain. What other medications do you take regularly? I wonder if one of them may be contributing to the issue with your hands. ## Does gabapentin cause high blood pressure? My heart...

I have been taking coverall 2mg for about 1 year now. I have blurred vision, awful leg pain, and have developed a cough with mucus running down the back of my throat. I have also gained weight for no reason. I also take pariet 20mg. Can you please give me some advice? ## Hello, Ollie! How are you? The blurred vision and leg pain might be due to the Coverall, the FDA does list those as being possible side effects, along with nausea, dizziness, headache, and increased urination. Both of these medications are listed by the NIH as possibly causing weight gain. As to the cough with mucous, that might be due to an acid issue, if you are taking the Pariet to treat acid reflux, or a similar condition, it can cause a cough with mucous and sinus drainage. What type of foods do you eat? What do yo...

I am taking Amlidopine and Bisoprolol for hypertension. I developed a rash on both ankles and a psoriasis like rash on my bottom. It is getting better after stopping bisoprolol for a week, but blood pressure is rising. what alternatives do I have? ## Hello, Aubrie! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem you're having. There are many other options available for treating high blood pressure, including some in the same drug class, which as listed by the FDA is beta blockers, such as Metoprolol, Propranolol, Atenolol Nebivolol.

Can lisinopril and propranolol er 60 mg be prescribe for blood pressure at the same time with no problems. ## Hi, Marylou! Yes, they sure can and it is often done when someone's blood pressure is found to be extremely high, or if they've proved to have resistant hypertension. Many times, combining such medications causes them to act synergistically, which improves how well they lower blood pressure levels. Learn more Propranolol details here. Learn more Lisinopril details here. But the patient should know to watch for the signs of hypotension, which may include headache, dizziness, high heart rate and shallow breathing. And some side effects which may occur from these medications can include nausea, drowsiness and stomach pain. Is there anything else I can help with?

Taking mylan nifedipine er and teva naproxen 250 mg together alright? ## Hello, Doreen! How are you? No, it might not be safe for you to take any NSAID, if you have high blood pressure. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications can sometimes cause elevated blood pressure as side effects, along with fluid retention, which can further contribute to the problem, so you shouldn't take them, without your doctor's approval. Nifedipine is a calcium channel blocker that's most commonly used to teat hypertension and certain cardiac conditions, its typical side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach pain and hypotension. Is there anything else I can help with?

Taking tritace 1.25 and cardiloc 1.25 for high blood pressure and fast heart rate . My left leg keeps swelling up and I get many headaches. Should I be taking a diuretic? ## Hello, Jan! How are you? I'm sorry about the problems that you're having. Yes, those can be normal side effects, though they should improve after about 4 to 6 weeks, once your body gets used to the medication. As listed by the FDA, you may also experience nausea, dizziness, stomach pain, increased urination and hypotension. And yes again, you may need a diuretic, but only your doctor can tell you that, you may also need to switch to a different medication. Is there anything else I can help with?

I was just put on Losartan. I was told to take the pill once a day one hour before bedtime, because the pill can make you drowzy. This will be my second day taking this medication. I hope I do not experience any of the bad side effects. ## Hello, Tammy! How are you? What side effects are you worried about? The FDA lists the typical ones for this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination and hypotension. I've been taking it for several years, with no issues. ## Actually I am not worried about any side effects.I hope I don't have any side effects. ## I was taking Lisinopril 40mg and it was keeping my b/p at 140/87 for 5 years now. Then I had a mri of my liver, because I was having upper right chest pain. And the doctor informed me that I now...

I am diabetic patient and I feel that when I take targit-H medicine once a day I got mouth infection than I can't eat salty food .is it true? ## Hi, Rajinder! No, that wouldn't be an infection. That's not how they work. Targit-H contains the active ingredients Telmisartan and Hydrochlorothiazide, it is most commonly used to help lower high blood pressure and treat certain cardiac conditions. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach pain and dehydration. You can learn more Targit-H details here. Are you making sure to take it with a full, 8 ounce glass of water or other liquid? If you are, then it shouldn't be making your mouth so sensitive like that. It can cause dry mouth, as a side effect, is that the problem that you're having?

I have been taking thyronorm 25 mg for the past 3 years and now my BP is 160 -100 most of the time. I wake up in the morning with headaches and pain in my left arm. My Dr advised me taking orlistat 120 for weight management and xtem and olmator 20. I am not sure if i should start these medications, though it is two weeks now and i am taking mukta vati and medhavati. ## I am 78 years old, taking Thyrox 25 for the past one year due to high BP. Prior to this was taking Losaran 50 twice daily, but since I started thyroid medicine my BP has gone down. Sometimes it comes down to as low as 102/54. I also take 4 tablets of Tidomet plus 125. What is the reason why my BP has been going down?

Will headaches from lisinopril diminish. How long? ## Hello, Mary! How are you? The FDA classifies Lisinopril as an ACE inhibitor that's most commonly used to treat high blood pressure and certain cardiac conditions. Along with headaches, other possible side effects may include nausea, dizziness, increased urination, stomach pain and hypotension. The side effects should taper off in time, as your body gets used to the medication, but it may take about 4 to 6 weeks. If the headaches get worse, or don't improve after that time period, then please consult your doctor. Is there anything else I can help with?

I recently started taking two tramadol 50 mg for severe joint pain due to RA. At the same time, my blood pressure was high (226/108) so i took 25 mg metoprolol and 25 mg losartan. Will my blood pressure drop too quickly? ## Hello, Irene! How are you? Has there been any change? These medications will not work to instantly lower blood pressure. They must be taken consistently over a period of time to have their full beneficial effect in your body, they cannot only be taken on an as needed basis. With readings that high, you could be in danger and should see your doctor for assistance, or if you've been instructed to take these medications regularly, you should start doing so. The FDA lists their typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urinatio...

I had my aortic valve replaced with a mechanical valve in 2014. Post surgery I was put on bisoporal and losartan (25mg). following really bad side effects with the bisoporal my cardiologist told me to stop immediately.

My GP wouldnt take me off either as he said he wasnt a cardologist but my blood pressure is normal. I am so desperate now with continuing side effects painful legs, knees and migraine headaches dont see my cardologist for another year for checkup.

I took blood pressure medication and vitamins at 6:30 and now it's 9:20 pm. When can I take my Norco for my pain? ## What blood pressure medication are you taking? There shouldn't be a need to separate them, but without knowing what medication is involved, I can't say for sure. The FDA warns that Norco carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation.
