Does antihistamine raise blood pressure
Common Questions and Answers about Does antihistamine raise blood pressure
antihistamine
Yoga or exercise moves that put the eye inverted (think standing on your head) markedly raise the pressure in the eye and the blood pressure inside the brain. It is strongly recommended that glaucoma patients not do this and many MDs recommend people with high blood pressure or a family history of cerebral aneurysms not do this. It will also raise the tissue pressure so I would say you were upside down too long.
Pain will cause the BP to raise. I have a friend who is in severe pain constantly and her BP went up to 240/120 at one point. Needless to say, she went to the ER and is on BP medication. Under stress my BP will run around 160/100 when standing and dip to 139/89 when sitting. Since I'm always under stress, it's high. The doctors didn't seem too worried with these readings, although for me life style changes are in order.
So I had a recent doctors visit back in May and my blood pressure was 120/80. Not too shabby. At this point I didnt even know what blood pressure was but I knew mine was good. However now that I knew what BP was I, being anxious about my health, wanted to learn more.
So a month later I (and lots of anxious research later) I found a supermarket BP machine and got a reading of 137/80. Noticibly higher.
I'm 78, 6ft tall. weigh 210lbs, have hypothyroid (treated) and my blood pressure is 80/49 pulse 105. I'm very dizzy and light headed. How can I raise my blood pressure to more normal?
yes, anxiety can raise blood pressure the way your blood pressure reading indicates, the systolic blood pressure...that is not usually part of the pathological high blood pressure syndrome.....regarding you anxiety symptoms, they are the workings of your brain that senses a danger, in this case the danger of how new people will evaluate you...and maybe find out your secret self doubts...that is where I would suggest you start exploring....
it would probably be rare for creatine to raise blood pressure. It does result in water retention, but that's in the muscle cells, not in the circulation. If it were causing the rise in BP, that would be a rare case.
OTOH, the creatine probably is the likely suspect. So, like everybody says, the reasonable approach is to discontinue it and see if BP goes down. That's not guaranteed, and you can't overlook the possibility of something worse, like kidney disease.
My blood pressure has gone up to 180 over 100. The only change I have made in my life style is to take Patanol eye drops for allergy eyes. I have been using them once daily for 4 months. Could it be that this antihistamine can be causing this increase in my blood pressure? I am allergic to the drugs used for controling blood pressure and prior to this successfully lowered my pressure by exercise and diet.It is normal for me to have a reading of 130 over 80. I am 59 years old. I weigh 110 pounds.
I think that if you always had a blood pressure of 90/60, you're blood pressure is perfect for you. Your diastolic number (60) get lower sometimes? If so, did you have some symptoms of low blood pressure like orthostatic hypotension when you are sit and change position to a standing one (symptoms like lighthehead, dizziness, fast pulse rate). Do you feel tired? If so, maybe your blood pressure is too low for you.
I think the question is how much do they raise the blood pressure? And, then of course, is that elevation enough to be a concern?
In a somewhat recent study (2006), they reported that, "A growing body of work exists about the short- and long-term effects of stimulant treatment on cardiovascular parameters in children, adolescents, and adults with ADHD who are receiving stimulants.
How long can i use antihistamine for my daughter aged 7 months to relieve her of the eczema itching.
Blood pressure that has been ranging from
110/70 to 115/75 which is your case, is not something that you should worry about.
The normal according to American Heart Association is less than
120 mmHg for systolic (upper number) and less than 80 mmHg diastolic (lower number).
However, if your blood pressure goes lower than 80/50 mmHg, accompanied by dizziness, you should be concerned. Hypotension happens when your BP is lower than 90/60 mmHg.
