A member asked:

I am diagnosed with general anxiety and if i drink a moderate amount of alcohol my blood pressure lowers from 120-130/80-90 to 110-115/66-75. why?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Vasodilation : Short and incomplete answer, but alcohol is a substance that widens all of your circulatory vessels. This reduces the pressure temporarily. An md should consult and help you find ways of managing this without self-medication. Good luck!
