What Causes Nausea And Excessive Sweating While On Treatment For Blood Pressure?
my mother 84 was put on cardizem cd recently she also takes lopressor & lanixam her blood pressure was 135 over 59 She said she does not feel right & a little nausua she was sittting today with great grandchild & was completley soaken with sweat. Should we seek medical attention?
Greetings. Felt glad that i am able to help your mother overcome discomfort.
My opinion is that since she feels Nausea & excessive sweating only after taking Cardizem cd(as per your details) recently, well definitely the reason could be the medicine(Allergy/side effect) or she might have had a new problem in her body viz., infection/heart problem/any other digestive system problem etc.,many other. Can't explain all here.Hope you understand.
My advise is that 'YES'-she has to seek Medical attention at the earliest, which is not only for her betterment but also avoid further discomfort due to complication.

Note: Finally You've to realize that these are just a guidance. Not a definitive treatment as i haven't seen your mother personally. We don't know what exact condition of your mother is unless we see her personally.Consult your Doctor if she still feel uncomfortable in spite of knowing above possibility.
Hope i guided you right & it helped.
