Can anyone recommend an alternative to high blood pressure medicine? Amlodipine 5mg?

We Answered:

Meditation, Massage, and Acupuncture :)

Also, research your food. Example: Black Licorice will raise your bp sky high but Doc's will not tell you that, neither will pharmacy's, they are enjoying their money too much as they vaca taking your calls from the hoiety toiety beaches :(

Good luck to you!

Does taking medicine for high blood pressure affect penile erection?

We Answered:

Mostly, yes specially in the long term treatment. But which would you prefer, getting a heart attack or an erection? The benefits of maintaining on an anti-hypertensive drugs outweighs its risks. Besides, we already have Viagra & Cialis now in tablet form, unlike before that it must injected directly into the penis to have an erection.

Can Nebivolol Hydrochloride cause veso vegal attacks ? Suggest alternative medicine for High Blood Pressure.?

We Answered:

The side effects are listed below:

Headache
Fatigue
dizziness
Paraesthesiasis
Tiredness,
coldness of the extremities (fingers, toes and nose),
disturbed sleep,
nightmares,
shortness of breath,
upset tummy,
skin rashes,
dry eyes,
fluid retention (swelling of the feet and ankles),
depression,
problems with eye sight, pins and needles or sexual problems.

These are common with almost all beta blockers. I think what you are referring to is the dizzyness and that can be caused by getting out of bed or out of a sitting position too fast. Take it slowly.

All blood pressure medications will do this to some degree when you first start on them until your body adjust. Tell the doctor and he might adjust your dosage.

My friend has diabetes,high blood pressure and is pregnant. Anyone has alternative medicine good for her?

We Answered:

she needs to be seeing an obgyn who specializes in high risk pregnancies. she does not need to be looking into alternative medicine. she is carrying a child inside of her for goodness sakes. she should not do anything without consulting a doctor. a lot of alternative medicine that works when you are not pregnant can wreak complete havoc when you are pregnant and cause major damage to a fetus or cause spontaneous abortion.
