Not in all: 22 year old female with allergic rhinitis wondering if it can be caused by beta blockers. Beta blockers is a class of medication used for high blood pressure and some other heart conditions. In some it can cause non allergic rhinitis like blocked nose, runny nose, and sinus pressure, but not in all patients. Simply ask your prescribe an alternative if you think it is related
