Depends on cause: You may take small amounts of Acetaminophen and avoid alcohol. It would be better to consult the doctor who is treating you for hypertension.

Ask your doctor: There are many different types of medicine for back pain and many for high blood pressure. It is best to check with your doctor. A pharmacist can also give you information about drug interactions.
