Annette Styles,

 

Thanks for your posted question.  Assuming there is no allergy to Penicillin or Penicillin like drugs, people with High Blood Pressure can take Penicillin VK .  I can't think of any physiologic mechanism associated with High Blood Pressure that would prevent the use of this antibiotic. 

 

I hope this information has been helpful.
