Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Pain killer medication can cause elevated and uncontrolled blood pressure.
Resistant hypertension may be due to high salt intake, atherosclerosis, kidney problems and cardiac problem etc.
Please consult your cardiologist he will examine and treat you with alternate medicine accordingly.
Take care.
