What can i do to avoid flushed red face caused by blood pressure medicine?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Flushing and BP meds: You should speak to your doctor about your problem and see if your medicine can be changed. There are a multitude of BP meds on the market and i quite certain that one can substituted for the medicine that is giving you problems. Give your physician call and get your problem resolved. Good luck.
