I agree that we all need to research all of our own medications (as well as other medical treatments) and be informed health care consumers. Sometimes it’s difficult though when the data is confusing, inconsistent or conflicting.

I have been wearing a 24-hour blood pressure monitor, just took it off. I suspect that my blood pressure is mildly elevated and that my PCP will want to put me on a blood pressure medication. I plan to research them before I see him this week so I know exactly what we are talking about.
I was on BP medications for a while about 15 years ago and one made me cough constantly, which it turned out is a very frequent problem with that medication. As soon as I told the PCP I had back then that I had a constant cough she knew it was from the medication and changed me to a different one. I know my current PCP has a record of that.
If anyone knows anything about problems with any BP medications I would love to hear about them. Thanks.
JK
