I am 33 years old an have been on blood pressure meds for several years for unexpired high blood pressure. Today for some reason my meds don t seem to be working and now I have a severe headache and my blood pressure is 151/113 with a pulse of 104. What can I do to get this down and the headache to go away.
Hello! Welcome on Chat Doctor! I carefully passed through your question and would explain that your blood pressure values (especially diastolic blood pressure) are high, and the headache is related to high blood pressure. If the blood pressure is lowered, the headache will probably get better. I would like to have some more information about your actual antihypertensive therapy. I recommend taking captopril 1 tab under your tongue to lower your blood pressure. If you do not have this Chat Doctor.
