Topic - Medication Interactions

Q: Does BP medication raise your blood sugar levels? A: Medication to treat high blood pressure has been associated with an increased risk for developing high blood sugar. Blood pressure that requires more than one medication for control is associated with the greatest risk. Still, hypertension needs to be treated. To avoid the need for multiple drugs, alternative treatments such as the RESPeRATE are often recommended.

Medication: Cardura/ doxazosin (Alpha blocker)

Topic - Medication: Cardura/ doxazosin (Alpha blocker)

How Cardura Reduces Blood Pressure Cardura XL (doxazosin) is one of a class of blood pressure medication called Alpha Adrenergic Blockers or Alpha Blockers. Alpha blockers cause the blood vessels (veins and arteries) to relax and expand, which allows blood to pass more easily through them. Other Alpha Blockers include Flomax, Minipress, Hytrin and Uroxatral. Although these medications are beneficial, many times they are not enough to control your blood pressure.
