Specializes in Cardiology

Blood pressure : Diclofenac belongs to a class of medications that can raise blood pressure would try another pain reliever (tylenol (acetaminophen) ) and have your doctor check your blood pressure.

My husband has probably been having for several months now problems with high blood pressure. On average, it is normally 150/80-90. Some days it will be 143/80. He's started taking 25 MG of BP med about 2 weeks ago. How bad is his bp?

A member asked:

If you take blood pressure medication and your bp is normal at home when relaxed, but when you experience stressful events at work or anywhere else and it gets high to unhealthy levels (150s,160s,170s systolic) do you need to get more bp meds?
