Suggest Alternate Medicine For High Blood Pressure
I have high blood pressure. The medications I've tried have been hard on my digestive system. Are there any medications for HBP that are easy on your stomach? I'm 74 yrs old and have taken HBP medicine for over 15 yrs. Benicar was doing well until recently. Now it doesn't seem to keep my pressure down. I upped to 40mg aday.
