Thank you for this. I am having this exact problem. Using a lot more Ibu than you. About mg per day for shoulder pain. Never associated this with high blood pressure, but after a long break of not using it began using — mg per day for pain. How long did it take for your pressure to go down?
It took about 1 week. Keep flushing your system with at least 64 oz. This will also flush out the system. Thank you for the advice. I was just about to take 2 Ibuprofen for the pain in hand. Twenty-four-hour blood pressure monitoring and hour urine collection for prostaglandin E2, creatinine, and sodium were performed on days 1 and 8 of each study week. Tablet counts and a 40 percent reduction in urinary prostaglandin E2 documented compliance with ibuprofen. In fact, in one study conducted, there was evidence that those who took both aspirin and ibuprofen had nearly twice the risk of death from any type of cause.
Further, they had a 73 percent increased risk of death from heart disease. In addition to the information above, there are other reasons why taking ibuprofen is not a good thing when it comes to having high blood pressure. The use of non-aspirin pain relievers increases the risk for high blood pressure.
For those already with high blood pressure, these medications can further push your numbers higher, increasing your risks. One study showed that those who took anti inflammatory such as ibuprofen, at least 22 times per month had an increased risk of having high blood pressure by 86 percent. If you are a high blood pressure patient, a doctor should carefully weigh the use of any type of over the counter medications.
This includes any medication that contains aspirin in it. In people whose blood pressure was previously controlled on medication, starting an NSAID can worsen their blood pressure readings. The size of this effect depends partly on the individual and on the blood pressure medication they are taking. When researchers checked the records of 1, people with hypertension who used NSAIDs and 1, people who used acetaminophen paracetamol , they found that NSAID use was associated with a 2 mmHg higher systolic blood pressure upper figure overall.
In those taking a beta-blocker antihypertensive drug, systolic blood pressure was 6 mmHg higher, on average. Previous studies have reported as much as a 7 mmHg increase in blood pressure in people who take an NSAID such as ibuprofen plus a beta-blocker drug, and up to a 10 mmHg rise in blood pressure in people combining ibuprofen with an ACE inhibitor drug. A study involving people with both hypertension and osteoarthritis , assessed the effects of starting ibuprofen on their blood pressure control using an ambulatory BP monitor.
Taking ibuprofen for four weeks, at the commonly prescribed dose of mg three times daily, significantly worsened blood pressure control — especially in those taking an angiotensin receptor blocker or an ACE inhibitor antihypertensive drug.
If you have high blood pressure and a painful condition such as osteoarthritis, which requires regular non-steroidal anti-inflammatory painkiller, whatever you do, avoid taking ibuprofen. Talk to your doctor about whether or not another type of painkiller might suit you better.
