Do any of you use blood pressure meds on your cycles to keep it in the normal range? If so which med are you using?

GENERIC NAME: atenolol. BRAND NAME: Tenormin
a beta-adrenergic blocking agent

I must have been thinking "attenuated" when I spelled it (damm latin)

Clonidine (catapress) o.1mcg at bedtime (may increase it to 0.2mcg if needed)

One of the safest.


I've also used nitro sublinquals as needed

Blood pressure problems last couple of days, metallic taste in mouth, dizziness, ect. I have an extensive Med background and I know this could be bad. Too bad I don't have my old ECG's and med equip, Hell I cant even find my stethoscope. LOL

It was bad yesterday after training, but today it was bad as soon as I woke up, I figure that's pretty bad when getting out of bed causes "symptoms"

I took 50mg atenolol (a beta-adrenergic blocking agent) AKA "heart pill" to see if I can bring things down a notch.

Now I'm trying to get a ride to the local grocery to take my blood pressure!
I LOVE THE AMERICAN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM.

I should be OK wish me luck

I take hydrochlorathiazide, a mild diuretic, lowers bp and bloat.

I've been on Diovan since January. It works pretty good, my bp is down in high normal when I'm on juice. I haven't been off and checked my bp, but it's got to be lower. Damn expensive though. It's a HCT and Valsartan combination.
