Avatar m tn Unfortunately the HCV was not eliminated and when I ran across an article that indicated that losartan(Cozaar) a blood pressure medicine may reduce or eliminate fibrosis I asked my doctor to change on of my blood pressure medicines to it which he did, coincidently on that visit he detected some fibrosis by feeling the stiffness of my liver. The hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) are activated into myofibroblast-like cells that produce the fibrosis by angiotensin II.

1008841 tn?1293598960 There was a recent thread on this forum regarding fibrosis regression and blood pressure drugs (specifically Cozaar, Losartan, etc. the ARB class).

I had read studies about Cozaar being beneficial for ED, Fibrosis, and depression...

Avatar n tn Does your husband take Cozaar only for blood pressure? If he does ask his doctor if he could try a device called RESPERATE! Google the word RESPERATE and you can check it out. If you also drink three cups per day of Hibiscus tea it can also decrease blood pressure by up to 7 points you can google Hibiscus tea and read about it.
Avatar f tn There are a few things that you can do to increase your blood pressure to see if it makes you feel better (of course, be sure your blood pressure isnt high before doing any of these). The easiest thing to do is to drink a ton of water, 4+ liters a day, this will build up your blood volume and your blood pressure, I always feel better when my pressure is 100/60 as opposed to 70/30.

Until late April, I was taking Lopressor (Metoprolol) 100 mg, Cozaar 100 mg and wearing a Catapres (Clonodine) 1mg patch. My blood pressure was well controlled and usually in the 120.70 range +/-. Suddenly it dropped very low. I am currently off all medications and am having trouble keeping it above 9040.

172715 tn?1285494490 Should I stop taking my blood pressure medicine if it seems under control when I miss a pill? I forgot to take my pill one morning and went to a doctors appt. in the afternoon. My pressure was 118/78 which was normal. How long does the medicine stay in your system if you stop taking it or forget to take it. Without it, before I started any meds, my pressure was usually 142/94. I have chronic pain, depression, HBP and I am 75lbs overweight (and more chronic illness') .

Avatar m tn Called 911 and the fire fighters recorded my heart rate at 180 bpm and blood pressure of 145/85. Just a minute or two before the EMTs got there it stopped skipping beats and stayed slowing down.
