What medications lead to high blood pressure

Taking certain medications leads to increased blood pressure and the development of arterial hypertension. You
do you know what these drugs are? Save the post to your bookmarks so that you don't lose it.


List of medications that may increase blood pressure while taking them:

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) – ibuprofen (Nurofen, next), naproxen (nalgesin, apranax);
Drugs for cough and cold – which is composed of pseudoephedrine (tylenol, grippers), phenylephrine (Theraflu,
grippoflyu);
Vasoconstrictor nose drops (nasal decongestants) – naphazoline, galazolin, nazol etc.
Corticosteroid medications;
Migraine medications;
Antidepressants – venlafaxine (velaxin), MAO inhibitors, tricyclic antidepressants, fluoxetine (proflusak);
Drugs for weight loss – sibutramine (Reduxine);
Combined oral contraceptives;
Immunosuppressive drugs-cyclosporine;
Preparations with licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra);
Anabolic steroids;
Alcohol, stimulants and narcotic substances (cocaine, amphetamine, ecstasy) - no comments, everything is clear.
Taking the above groups of chemicals and substances is fraught with the development of hypertensive crises, especially in patients with
patients with pre-existing hypertension. Monitor your blood PRESSURE while taking any of these medications
list.

If you have increased blood PRESSURE while taking these medications – you need to cancel them or replace them with a drug with
an alternative mechanism of action.

The choice, cancellation or correction of the therapy should only be carried out by a doctor! Don't self-medicate,
so as not to harm your health!
