labetalol
So I went into my 15 week appt yesterday and she said my BP was at 167/70 said that it was high. We checked it three times with rest in between and it never went down so my dr prescribed me labetalol 100mg 2X a day. I splurged with Chinese food and fast food the day before and was swollen from that. I got home and checked my blood pressure yesterday like every hour I checked it and it consistently stayed at 135/75 which is kinda high but not like it was. So I have tried to get into contact with my dr about maybe lowering the dose or letting me try to work on lowering it naturally. The most meds I have done through this pregnancy is tums and if possible I would like to keep it that way. If anyone has had a similar experience or has had any experience with medication please let me know. I’m currently waiting for a call back from my dr and I will update as soon as I know something.
