I have no knowledge or experience of blood pressure medication but it might be a good idea to talk to your pharmacist about the options. The problem is we are all different and therefore react differently to medications so I guess it’s largely a case of trial and error.......

Your question warrants a discussion with your health care professional. It is wide to have some idea of the classes of blood pressure medication:

Diuretics

Beta-blockers

ACE inhibitors

Angiotensin II receptor blockers

Calcium channel blockers

Alpha blockers

Alpha-2 Receptor Agonists

Combined alpha and beta-blockers

Central agonists

Peripheral adrenergic inhibitors

Vasodilators
