What Causes High Blood Pressure While On Provochal?
I'm a 43 year old female. I started taking Provochal 3 weeks ago and now am having blood pressure 155 over 105. I was taking blood pressure/water pill this last year for high blood pressure but the last 3 months it was normal so I stopped a month ago. Could these to factors help put me in this situation now?

Hello
Welcome to HCM.
Provochol is a cholesterol lowering medication and will not cause rise in the BP. the cause of your high BP is because you quite your BP medications. It was normal as you have described, but that normal was under the effect of medications.
So I recommend you to restart those BP medications and you will do fine.
wishing you good health.
regards.
