Q: Is there a diet pill to take when you have High Blood pressure?
Hi MomNeedsHelp09,
I do not recommend diet pills, with or without high blood pressure.
Many weight loss supplements contain "undeclared pharmaceutical ingredients", frequently in levels exceeding FDA recommendations. These ingredients include drugs not approved in the U.S. These substances impact blood pressure and anti-seizure medications, diuretics, along with drugs linked to suicide, depression, and cancer.
All the best,
