Thank you for the information; it helps my studies on the different classes of hypertension drugs that are commonly used!

Thank you Dr. Kelly for going out of your way in sharing this knowledge. My mother was recently hospitalized and prescribed Nifedipine. Just wanted to know more to understand more.

HCTZ also raises blood sugar. I became pre-diabetic while taking HCTZ despite a low-carb diet. When I stopped, my blood sugar returned to normal very quickly. Beta blockers such as metoprolol also raise blood sugar. Both lower testosterone.

Very helpful, thank you

Thank you! I am on the Ca blocker type since Jan 9th, and it is working very well.

Thank you

Thankyou.

I have a tumor in my left adrenal gland, which is causing my high blood pressure. My doctor put me on lisinopril and it is causing my throat to swell and a constant cough, as if there is something in my throat. As well as a little bit of chest discomfort. My tonsils are swollen, large that my ENT doctor wants to remove my tonsils. however, after watching this very informative video, I may suggest to my doctor to put me on a different prescription. Thank you for making this video.

i have been using Dialtezm & Valsatran & my ankles have been swollen since sept 8. my doc lowered the dialtezm but my ankles remain swollen. i’m stopping both because it is now Oct 7, 2023 & im already seeing results of the swelling go down. My blood pressure is 114/78. I’m going back to doc in 2 weeks to see if it works.

Thank you Dr. I’m concern about my blood pressure .

I have tried 3 meds so far…still on 2 ….biggest issues include muscle cramps, dehydration (despite drinking H2O all day) and worse, chronic constipation.

Do you ever try to figure out what is causing the high BP?

Hi. There seems to be a contradiction. How can these drugs stop the progression of kidney disease and at the same time damage the kidneys?

What if your blood sodium us low and doctor suggests inapamide ( a diuretic)

atenolol, losartan, amlodipine: Rash, worse rash, spreading rash. Help! Which BP med will not cause a rash???

What about losar a 50 /5

How about seeing things that are not there and acting stoned..because that is what happened to my mother she was on the ace and coughed for 3 years the switched her to valsartan and it messed her head up...

I experience chronic migraines, and while having a migraine my BP becomes very elevated (160/90). While the BP is high I take 100mg of HYDRALAZINE twice a day and that prevents a hypertensive crisis. On a day without a migraine attack my BP will be 133/78 or lower. It’s been very difficult to regulate my BP because of the prodrome and postdrome phases of the frequent migraine (12 a month).

What is a natural remedy?

The doctor prescribe Candesartan cilexetil for me to lower my blood pressure up date me please

Sir good morning, age 24 , bp 160/115 kindly advise if I should get medicines.. waiting for your reply sir

Side effect of arbs ?

when i think of blood pressure medications i think of drugs worse for you than any narcotics

Also if you eat low carb, diuretics are not good.

His claim thar the Arb inhibitors do not cause cough is a lie. About 5% on Arb get cough compared to 15-20% from ACE.

idk this medicine makes me feel weird I am taking 3 meds Lisinopril 40 MG Hydrochlorothiazide 50 MG Amlodipine 10 MG i am 35 Yo

Arb's give me insomnia

Awful deplete your electrolytes junk
