I started Concerta and my blood pressure is high, what should I do?
30-year-old woman
Hello, I started taking concerta 1 week ago. My doctor asked me to check my pressure. My pressure has been very high for 3 days. I have headaches, dizziness and my vision is blurry. Today I was at 156/76. I really don't feel well.
Should I stop taking it until I have an appointment with my doctor or will it wear off?

Thank you for the feedback!
Indeed, considering that you are describing some rather uncomfortable symptoms, I suggest that you consult your pharmacist who will be able to adequately assess the situation and, if necessary, contact your doctor with suggestions or alternatives. I invite you to contact your pharmacist as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
Tom Samaha, pharmacist
