A member asked:

Am on 25mg of hydro for hpb. taking dexilant (dexlansoprazole) for stomach issues 5 days. a m bp was 113/84, evening was 145/98. could this be dexilant (dexlansoprazole) causing this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

NO: This is not a side effect of Dexilant (dexlansoprazole) - it's normal variation through the day. If your average evening BP is always elevated, you may need a second medication added that is given later in the day. Remember to always rest 10 minutes before measuring your BP, take 3 measurements and average them.
