Risk and implication: Some of the m edications can lower your heart rate, some thin out the blood. Risk of stroke is common with many of the medications used to treat HTN.

All medications should be taken exactly as prescribed by the doctor and before taking any OTCs be sure to consult with your primary care provider.
