In this article I am going to cover prescription drugs for high blood pressure and also look at the side effects.
Prescription drugs are usually only prescribed after you've tried to implement some lifestyle changes. If you've had a heart attack, suffer with diabetes or have dangerously high cholesterol, your doctor more than likely going to be keen to recommend one of the many drug treatments available, such as Beta Blockers, ACE Inhibitors, Diuretics and Vasodilators to name a few.
The goal behind any hypertension treatment is to lower your blood pressure, reduce your risk of heart attack, stroke or other problems and help you live longer and to be healthier.
There are a number a common side effects from taking hypertension medication:
-Weakness / tiredness
-Impotence
-Cold hands and feet
-Depression
-Disturbed sleep
-Slow or fast heartbeat
-Dry, constant cough
-Ankle swelling, leg cramps or aches in the joints
-Headaches
-Digestive complications
You should speak to your doctor if you experience any of these symptoms while taking medication.
It will probably be trial and error, taking a number of different drugs until you find that works for you. So be prepared to put in some time and effort before seeing results.
If prescription medication is not something you wish to consider, don't worry, next week I'm going to cover natural approaches to lowering blood pressure.
However, if you wish to know more about the specifics of hypertension medication and what beneficial effect each one has, along with their side effects, you can find out more in the ebook, I recommend the "Blood Pressure Reduction Guide" - And you can find more information by going to this website: Click Here
