A member asked:

Are there medications that could cause high blood pressure ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Absolutely! there are multiple medicines that can raise blood pressure. Generally any medicine that has stimulant properties can cause your BP to go up. Rarely, albuterol can cause a transient rise in blood preessure. Are you taking anything else?
