Is it possible to take blood pressure medication every 12 hours?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Talk to your Dr.: Blood pressure shows a 24-hour rhythm, higher during the day and lower during nighttime sleep. You should take at least one blood pressure-lowering medication at bedtime. Drugs called ACE inhibitors and ARBs are the most effective when taken at this time. Others can be taken in the morning to control the higher BP which occur during the day. Talk to your Dr about adding a daytime med.
