A member asked:

Any suggestion to control raynauds disease when i also have high blood pressure?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Work with doctor: Work with your doctor on which BP medications to use. Some such as nifedipine, a calcium channel blocker, may help with both conditions. Others such as beta blockers may help your hypertension but worsen your raynaud's.

Nifedipine XL: Nifidepine XL addresses both, but it has to be the XL form.
