I take Alacand (Candesartan) for blood pressure. I was told to take it in the morning.

Recently been discussed that it is best to take blood pressure medication in the evening....is this so with Alacand.

Overall it was fairly inconclusive. I would ask your GP if you feel this is something you want to do.

I take mine at night. I read many months ago that it was better to take at night. Also I had some high readings during the night when I was taking them during the day.
