What are some effective medications high blood pressure?
I have untreated high blood pressure (usually around 144/99). I take my blood pressure every day to monitor the situation and determine what level I am. I know I have to go on medication, but I want a drug that will have few side effects. I am particularly concerned about the sexual side effects and I would be able to take a few drinks and more.

I think all medicines we take have side effects..but if I were you I would consult a specialist who can give better drugs for your own protection because hypertension is no joke! or maybe there’s something wrong with your system that’s why u always have a hypertension. I could say norvasc is one of the best!

All meds work differently from person to person.The doctor has me on monopril, and I don’t have any side effects. I did drink while taking it. It seemed to help to a degree, but when I went from 200 lbs. to 170 lbs. it went back to normal. Allways see a doctor before taking any prescription drugs. Your head will feel better.

Depending on if you have additional co-existing illnesses or conditions the following are first line agents that generally have few side effects, are inexpensive, and are not known to cause impotence.
Hydrochlorithiazide (aka HCTZ) It is in the “diuretic” classification of medications, though I have never known a patient to report that it made them go to the bathroom more. Side effect profile for HCTZ is comparable to that of a sugar pill. Once on the medication, a blood test to confirm that your electrolytes are stable should be done.
Lisinopril. It is in a class of medications called ACE inhibitors. Its primary side effect is a dry cough that develops in about 15% of people who use it. If the cough were to develop in you there are alternatives – though more expensive.
Norvasc. This medication is in a class of medications called calcium channel blockers. It is probably not my first choice unless your blood pressure were substantially out of control – and yours is not – but remains an option and it is usually well tolerated especially at low dose, say 2.5mg.
I hope this is helpful. Your primary care doctor is very well equipped to advise you on which medication to would be best for you – and I would take his/her advice. Good luck

I have high blood pressure also. I have had it since 1991 and have been on medication up until just about a couple of months ago when my doctor all of a sudden took me off my medicine. just because my blood pressure was normal that one day. and my blood pressure has went back up and i have been back to the doctor and he didn’t put me back on it. i was take lisinopril or something like that and it worked fairly well.
