Alternate Names : Medication-Induced Hypertension, Drug-Induced High Blood Pressure

Drug-Induced Hypertension | Symptoms & Signs | Diagnosis & Tests | Prevention & Expectations | Treatment & Monitoring

How is the condition diagnosed?

The condition is usually discovered when a person's blood pressure is elevated. The healthcare provider must then determine if the high blood pressure is the result of a medication. In some cases, this requires further testing. Another approach is for the person to stop taking the suspected medication to see if blood pressure returns to normal.
