There are many people these days that have issues with blood pressure. During the flu and cold season there are many people who get sick and want over-the-counter relief to help them through the tough times. These are not like peanut butter and chocolate (two great tastes that taste great together) if anything it is the exact opposite. There are many flu and cold over-the-counter medications that can cause a lot of issues where comes to a person less high blood pressure. It is therefore important to learn the over-the-counter medications that are safe and the ones that are not.<\/p>\n

Decongestants<\/p>\n

Many decongestants work by narrowing the blood vessels in the nose. These will also sometimes have an effect on other blood vessels in the body. Since a hypertensive is increased pressure on the blood vessels already this narrowing of the vessels can take a dangerous situation and make it worse. The answer to this problem is fairly simple. Only take cold medication that clearly state that they are approved for use with high blood pressure. Generally these will not be decongestants.<\/p>\n

NSAID Pain Relievers<\/p>\n

Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) are a common means of combating the common cold and flu. Unfortunately this form of pain relief can also conflict with many forms of high blood pressure medications as well as even cause complications for people with hypertension who do not take medication. All NSAID pain relievers are clearly marked on the bottles and should be avoided to be on the safe side. Some examples NSAID pain relievers are naproxen, ibuprofen, Aleve, Advil and Motrin.<\/p>\n

What cold and flu medicines are safe to take for the hypertensive.<\/p>\n

If saline nasal spray would work wonders to try to clear the nasal congestion without resorting to decongestants. It pain reliever such as aspirin or Tylenol can be of use in place of the NSAID pain relievers. Drinking lots of water, tea and juice is important to keep your system clean, maintain hydration help clear out mucus and phlegm. Getting a decent amount of rest is staying warm and relaxed can also help to heal the ravages of the cold.<\/p>\n

Think about all the old, “home remedies” for the flu and cold. They may not be as effective as,”lots of heavy drugs” but in the long run they can actually serve to help keep you alive if you have hypertension as well as having a flu or cold.<\/p>\n
