To complete this vital public health message, here are some common types of medications that can potentially raise blood pressure, which individuals with hypertension should discuss with their doctor or pharmacist:
Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs):
Examples: Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), naproxen (Aleve).
Why they're a concern: NSAIDs can cause your body to retain fluid and can also affect kidney function, both of which can lead to increased blood pressure. Even low doses can have an effect, especially with regular use.
Decongestants:
Examples: Pseudoephedrine (found in Sudafed) and phenylephrine (found in many cold and flu medications like NyQuil, DayQuil).
