Phil - would you be so kind to tell me the name of med. for BP that you are taking now ? Thanks so much in advance 🙂
PS: My husband was recently put on Valsartan even though his BP was not very high, but his cardiologist insisted he needs to correct it. His kidney function is normal but there are changes in BUN. BUN is in "normal range" but it used to be much lower and it concerns me. Cardio. told him just to drink more water *sigh.

I was also on Valsartan and it affected my BUN and GFR. I am now on Amlodipine (Norvasc) and so far so good.

After being on abiraterone for a year my BP Went from normal to the 130s and above. I was put on Diltaizen, Coreg and Losartan. Still having An issue with a high pulse I asked the cardiologist to replace the Coreg with Metropolol. My BP now never gets above about 108, even when I’m exercising a lot. When I switched from abiraterone to Darolutamide my BP started To get very low, my cardiologist agreed to halve my losartan prescription.
My BP is usually around 105/59
My monthly kidney blood tests are absolutely normal.
