Do BP meds affect resting pulse rate?

[Essexgirl63]

I’m on Losartan 50 and Bendroflumethiazide 2.5 and my daily BP readings average 110/65. Resting pulse rate about 55.

My resting pulse is a lot lower on meds too but nothing to be concerned about as generally around 55.

Hi Essexgirl63, (another Essex girl here). My readings are almost identical to yours. I was worried when I started taking my BP and pulse daily. As others have said it`s all good. Take care. x

I was on that combo (100mg losartan) for quite a few years and it never affected my heart rate. It stayed at resting rate of about 80-85.
