Does Ovral L responsible for high BP. ## Under certain circumstances, the hormones in oral contraceptives may increase the risk of hypertension, especially in women over 35, women who smoke, or those that have been on them for a long period of time. There is no way, however, to say that it may only have been caused by taking them. Your doctor would have to be the one to help you discover a cause, if there is one and find proper treatment. Are there any other questions?

i need metolar 50 mg how to get it at valley green san jose ca ## Hello, Swaminathan! How are you? Metolar is listed by the FDA as being an Indian brand name for Metoprolol. In the U.S. this medication requires a doctor's prescription and then you'd get the prescription filled at a pharmacy. The FDA classifies this medication as being a beta blocker and its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach pain and hypotension. Is there anything else I can help with?

I love one girl but it is one sided, because of that I having lots of tension. Recently my blood pressure went too high, it was 190/130. Doctors tried Clinidipine 10 mg for few days but its not coming down from 150/120. So now they gave Losar H 10mg. Is it good or else which medicine should I take. I am going through very bad phase. ## Clonodine works for me, it is blood pressure medication but i used it for withdrawl symptoms of coming off H, but i quite liked it. it took away my chest heavyness and racing heart and sweating. I have also used Prazosin (again, for a different medical condition, PTSD) -HOWEVER! When you start Prazosin, it increases your blood pressure, which the doctor did not tell me, and is very intense the first couple nights i thought i was going to have a heart atta...

Hi - I was taking Codeine for a number of years for severe pain, i was told i was suffering with osteoarthritis and eight Cocodamol a day did not touch the pain, whilst i was taking Codeine i was angry and little did i know my BP was very high, it was only when my BP was taken that i found out my BP was touching 200/ to cut a long story short after seeing a Neurologist and having tests it was discovered that my pain was being caused by Hereditary Motor Sensory Peripheral Neuropathy, i was taken of Codeine and put on Lyrica and Tramadol, my pain is now controlled i am no longer angry and my BP has been normal ever-since. So the story is this if you are taking any medication containing Codeine and are suffering with HIGH BP it may well be Codeine, so mention this to your doc. Warm Regards...

I took a half a pill tonight because my BP was high until I can talk to Dr in AM is this ok? ## What amount are you usually supposed to take? How high was your BP? In most cases no, you shouldn't try to add more of your medication, even half a tablet, because most of these medications don't work that fast, so it won't do anything to help in the period of time, before you'd see your doctor, anyway. Learn more: Lisinopril Details In addition, whether or not your BP is considered high, or going high again will also depend on other factors, such as the time of day you checked it, your stress levels, what you had eaten, where you recently active and etc. Your doctor will usually base their assessment on several readings, not just one. It is completely normal for your BP to fl...

Hi, my mother has High BP. It was 140/90 for the past few years.. But for the last one month it has gone up to (150-160)/(100-110). She is 49 years old. She is using Concor 2.5mg, Ln block 10 (twice a day) and Aldactone 25 mg. But still the BP is at the same level. She even consulted a cardiologist but everything is normal. Please suggest what can be done to reduce the BP. Can someone suggest any dietary changes or any medications that can reduce the BP? ## Hello, Srao! How is your mother doing? Some people are sodium sensitive, according to the NIH, so she might do better if she lowers her salt intake as much as possible. Eating healthy low fat foods can also help, so can exercising. She can also speak to her doctor about raising the dosage of her medications, or trying different ones....

Loved one was prescribed lotrel 5-10mg.. Been on it for 24 hours, but blood pressure is currently 202/115. Please advise. He consumed a beer, would that make it so high? ## It will take longer than 24 hours for this medication to reach its full level of efficacy in the body to see if it will lower his blood pressure. It will actually take 3 to 4 weeks, but you should start to see a gradual improvement after a week or so. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, stomach pain and dehydration. Is there anything else I can help with?

I am 37 years old and i was taking Telvas 40 mg from last one year because of high B.P. Now for the last month i have been taking Nebicard 5mg, and my B.P. is normal. Should i take more tablets and continue treatment or can i stop it? Please advise. Thanks. ## Nebicard contains the active ingredient Nebivolol, which is a beta blocker that's commonly used to treat high blood pressure and certain cardiac conditions. Learn more Nebicard details here. And no, you can't just stop taking it, once you're hitting normal levels. There is a very good chance that the only reason you're hitting those normal levels is because you're taking the medication. So, if you stop it, there's a good chance that your blood pressure may just raise again. Additionally, abruptly stopping t...

My age is 48 and my blood pressure remains at 150 past one year I am on telmisartan and amlodipine combined with bisoprolol 5mg. Suggest how to lower my blood pressure ## Hello, Krishna! How are you? What types of foods do you eat? If they are heavily salted and very fatty, that will play a role in causing your blood pressure to be high. It can also be affected by someone's being overweight and being sedentary. So, if you're carrying a few extra pounds, you should work on losing them, preferable via proper diet and exercise, since those both also play a role in lowering it. And have you talked to your doctor? These just might not be the right medications for you to take, you may need to try something else. ## Since last one year my bp is 150/75. Kidly suggest the remedy
