Can high blood pressure medication cause neurapathy?

I am not : A specialist in the filed but i very much doubt this. There are quite a few disease that can cause neuropathy such as diabetes, scleroderma, porphyria, etc.Etc. Also exposure to heavy metals can cause neuropathy. It is also important to know what area of the body is infected. Check with your doctor or google ur question...

Not likely: Antihypertensive medications such as the ones you have listed would be very unlikely to cause neuropathy. Hydralazine can rarely cause neuritis.

None.: None of the current anti-hypertensives causes neuropathy. But hbp is associated with diabetes and it can cause it. This probably the best 'indirect association!'.
