A member asked:

Why is my blood pressure running high at night, 141/89, even after taking my prescribed meds. during the day it is fine.

Blood pressure : There are several possibilities it may be that you are taking your blood pressure too soon after eating, or after drinking coffee or tea, or other caffeinated beverage, or that you need a different BP med.
