Brinsupri & Neuropathy

Posted by charisscurry @charisscurry, Dec 1 6:10pm

Has anyone had issues with neuropathy and feet swelling while using Brinsupri?

I’ve have swollen ankles for 2 days which I’ve never had before. Supposedly it could have been a reaction to doubling my BP med to counteract the increased hypertension due to a known side effect of Brinsupri It has subsided and my blood pressure has finally stabilized so I’m feeling positive.

@sharonednaramsey how long have you been on brinsupri and on what dose. I wrote before- I am on it twomonths, BP increased but from my regular 110 to 127-130. So I am watching.

I have been on 25 mg for two months now. My BP raised from my normal 120/80 but usually lower with a low dose Bap med. After 5 weeks on the Brinsupri it shot up to the 140s over 90s. My PCP increased my BP med. It seems to have stabilized now after 2 weeks and gone back down to my normal.
