Hello Placitas and thanks for your post.
I search our site and thought the followng information might be helpful.
First, you migh twant to read the material on Toprol XL and Atacand .
Next, there are a number of causes for hypertension. I'm not certain why you have a rise the way you do, but you must speak to your doctor about this as soon as possible. I am not medically trained and just couldn't answer that question properly.
Hope this helps, please let us know what your doctor tells you.
All the best, sue (moderator)
