Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here...How-long-does-it-take-blood-pressure-medicine-to-work
I have chest pain and headache that has been pretty constant for over 3 weeks. I have been on blood pressure medication for a little over a week and it goes up and down but still kindof high 126/110 then about an hour later 160/92
You didn't mention your age, level of stress, exertion, smoking, and obesity status etcetera. We can discuss your issues related to your uncontrolled blood pressure. Regarding your question of how much time it takes to adjust to medicine then my answer would be one week normally, but if with medication your blood pressure is high, then you need to consult your physician again.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Maryum
