Common Questions and Answers about Hyzaar high blood pressure medicine

cozaar

Avatar m tn Yes, there are many other drugs besides hydrochlorothiazide and losartan (Hyzaar) which can be taken for high blood pressure. Please ask your doctor to change Hyzaar, maybe increase the frequency or dose of Atenelol as it was suiting you. However, please do not make any changes yourself. Buy a home recording BP instrument and keep a check on your daily blood pressure in the morning and evening. Take care!
222369 tn?1274474635 ve gone from 280 to 248 or so. My high blood pressure was under control at the 280 lb mark by way of Hyzaar 100-25. My blood pressure is now in the low range (averaging 108/58). At what point in my weight loss (goal of 220 or lower) would you think I'd need to have my BP meds changed (if at all). I just thought a member here may have already gone through this and would have some advice. Thanks in advance!!
Avatar f tn What weight loss supplements are safe to take while on hyzaar and cozaar for high blood pressure
Avatar m tn I had an EKG which showed a LBBB. This led to a visit with a Cardiologist who ordered a stress test (passed, no blockages) and an echocardiogram. The echocardiogram showed some weakening of the heart muscle, "it's not pumping as strong as we'd like". The Cardiologist said I don't really have anything to worry about. He suggested some lifestyle changes (more exercise and losing some weight) and changed one of my blood pressure meds.
Avatar m tn In both drugs, the diuretic is a very small dose at 12.5 mg. This is a very common high blood pressure med and both have the same potential side effects so I would think your symptoms are not related to your change in meds. You should discuss this with your doctor to be safe. There are many benefits to a diuretic, most BP meds have this as well. The idea is to decrease your fluid volume load which makes it easier for the heart to function and to help prevent the asorbtion of salt.
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.

Avatar n tn Read the prescription of the medicine you are taking. Birth control pills could cause some problems especially if you are 35+, smoking, over weight, not active, bad diet, or if you already have blood circulation problems. Before you start taking them you need to make sure you are healthy. And you need to get detailed instructions from the doctor who prescribed you these pills, let him know about you symptoms.
Avatar f tn t get it and try not to stress it raises your blood pressure, did they put you on a blood pressure medicine to lower it?

Avatar f tn what causes high blood pressure during pregnancy?
Avatar n tn My doctor prescribed the medicine NADOLOL to be taken long with FLECAINIDE nd my blood pressure med. HYZAAR. I am very tired and my heart rate is around 48, 50 bpm. Did anyone else take this medicine NADOLOL, and did it affect your heart rate like mine? This seems to be the only adverse side effect of my ablation, so far.
9070037 tn?1414632966 Previously my pregnancy I was taking medication for High blood pressure. It was Chortalidone which is a diuretic. I was taking that before and during the first four weeks of my pregnancy , until My gyn told me not to take it during my pregnancy. I have 15 weeks already, I'm worried if that could had any effect on my baby. Am I supposed to control my high blood pressure during my pregnancy too? Anyone with high blood pressure that can give me an advice please?
Avatar f tn So I went to the doctor today & my doctor said that I had high blood pressure. Ive never had high blood pressure & im only 12 weeks. I have to take medicine & come back again Saturday so that she can take my blood pressure again. Has anybody else had this problem this early? What can be causing it?
Avatar f tn It depends. High blood pressure can have many etiologies. The reason for the high blood pressure must be determined. Unfortunately, in modern medicine, physicians jump to prescribe a pill. A certain percentage of patients (as many as ten percent) can solve their blood pressure problems by a D3 supplement and adding calcium to their diet. Those test results came from a study involving a thousand patients from a company seeking a new drug application for calcium channel blockers.

Avatar f tn They have blood pressure medicine that is safe during pregnancy I started on blood pressure medicine at 5 weeks now fourteen and baby is fine have had three ultrasounds already
Avatar f tn But told me to tell them if I get top number of 140+ or bottom number of 90+. I am high risk for high blood pressure but so far my highest was 118/70 something. Good luck!
Avatar f tn I have been receptive to the changing view because one of my thinking colleagues pointed out to me some 30 years ago that elevated systolic blood pressure would seem to play more of a role in the development of left ventricular hypertrophy and stroke than high diastolic blood pressure. Now there is considerable evidence to support the concept that systolic hypertension is a good predictor of future cardiovascular disease.
Avatar m tn high blood pressure is, by definition, a repeatedly elevated blood pressure exceeding 140 over 90 mmHg -- a systolic pressure above 140 with a diastolic pressure above 90. Note that they use the words "consistently" or "repeatedly" or some such. And also so that we don't debate the intervention point, feel free to substitute 120/80 for 140/90 if you like.
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') .
