Suggest Treatment For Hypertension When Suffering From Parkinson S Disease
My brother has Parkinson e Disease and very low blod pressure. His neurologist has prescribed Myrbetriq 25 mg/qd for bladder spasms but he is afraid to take it due to side effects. He does not have heard disease, kidney disease, pulmonary disease yet. How can I reassure him. One side effect I say was hypertension. This may actually be helpful to him:)
Myrbetriq side effects (except hypertension) are reported at low percentage, even hypertension is more likely to happen in those who suffers from hypertensive disease. Low blood pressure is in some cases a symptom of Parkinson's or drug's side effects. He should have to drink plenty of liquids, try not to stand still for long eriods, and try to change positions gradually (from lying to sitting, from sitting to standing), he can do some exercise (this can also help with his main disease ), use elastic stockings, and also if he doesn't have any other disease he can add more salt to the diet.
