Hello Sir,

That would be surprising, but it's not impossible. In your situation, does this medication seem to increase pressure?

I have been taking this medication for about a month but also used Advil for hip pain. For the past two weeks I have stopped everything and my blood pressure is back to normal

Good news!

I can confirm that the Advil™ is more likely to increase pressure. For pain, I would recommend that you prefer Tylenol™ which does not have this effect, or for very "targeted" pain (e.g. wrist), you can use Voltaren Emulgel™ for a few days for best results.

Happy day,
