Lowering Blood Pressure

Anyone on Triamterene-HCTZ (Dyrenium)? Is it essentially a water pill?

Triamterene is a diuretic as it HCTZ. Triamterene is used in conjuction with HCTZ for its enhanced overall effects on the thiazide diuretic(HCTZ)and for the potassium sparing effects it demonstrates.

I haven't seen it used much in my career. Do you currently take it?
 
Was just prescribed it today.

Can you elaborate on this? Is it an older prescription you mean or any idea why it isn't used much?

No not at all. The drug itself is just not a common first attempt at hypertension control though in my experience. A complete history and physical by a healthcare pofessional would dictate the best method of approach for each individual situation. The fact that you have a family history puts you at risk for the same complications in the long run irregardless. Honestly, family history is one of the worst risk factors you can have overall......and i myself absolutely have it in the hypertension/heart disease aspect.
 
Yes, I agree that given the family history of high blood pressure, that was probably the tipping factor of what the doctor prescribed.

Hey fellas..

I'm currently on 20mgs of lisinopril for bp, along with cycle support (just for general cardiovascular health).. You guys think this would be sufficient to negate any truly bad bp problems from a short (3-4week) cycle of phera?
 
I don't think it would help any...I have a friend whose normal BP is like 120/70 or better (and he's in GREAT cardiovascular health overall), but on PP it skyrocketed to 170/92. I'd stay away from PP if you have BP issues.
 
I am looking at adding a fat lose product to help shed some belly fat. My favs are clen and I think I had ok results with with Leviathan. I know Clen is a major stim and can raise BP. Any suggestions as to products that actually work (most are sh!t) for fat loss. Good ole ephedra was great. Looking into albuterol to see how it compares to clen and if I remember correctly it is easier on bp.
 
I am guessing you are refuring to adding liquid clen to one of those transdemals.

I take Androgel along with IM test-e for TRT. Any info on adding clen to the androgel then applying
 
Yeah you're correct. I was referring to liquid clen to a trandermal..

Hmm, I don't have a clue about adding clen to the androgel. Check this thread out, it's where I got this idea:

Could try something like meditation or even yoga to get rid of some of the stress, as dumb as it sounds..might be worth a shot.


Also hasn't raspberry extracts been shown to help with high BP?
 
In my experience, albuterol has had the least amount of increase in pulse/BP/peripheral stimulation in general, even less than plain old caffeine, and much less than ephedrine hcl and clen. Not to mention, the results are spectacular as well. Albuterol's "a helluva drug." LOL
 
Typical ?

Is lisinopril a typical medicine doctors prescribe to control blood pressure?

Lisinopril could be considered a common medicine yes, however, there are various methods to control BP and therefore there are different types of meds. Lisinopril is only one of many. It is a blocker but there are other types and also dieuretics. Best to see a professional to evaluate which course of meds is best. From my experience they start out with small dosages and follow your progress and make adjustments along the way based on effectivness and side effects. To understand if BP is regulated multiple measurements over a long duration is required due to outside influences that can cause variations so you need an average value of BP.
