Could Taking Ranitidine Cause High BP?
Hello, I have been on Ranitidine for about two weeks and now have high blood pressure. I have had exams showing my heart is healthy, no high cholestorol but my doctors do not think Ranitidine causes high blood pressure. I was wondering if it does. I have laryngealpharyngeal reflux and had a reaction to Protonix. The Ranitidine was the second option. I also have anxiety which has been getting worse since this issue. I'm not sure what my options are.

Hi,
As your all reports are normal, nothing to worry.
Take regular medicine for blood pressure.
Continue with Ranitidine, it is comparatively safe medicine.
Anxiety you get is main problem for having this false fear.
Avoid stress and you will be alright.
Ok and take care.
