Does ZzzQuil Cause Elevated Blood Pressure?
I have developed very high blood pressure over the past month or so. I have been taking ZzzQuil to help with sleep. I have Sleep apnea and the Bi-pap mask I used for years is no longer available. I am unable to find a replacement that I can use. Could the ZzzQuil be the cause of the High BP? the top number has been over 155 constantly, and the bottom over 100 most of the time. This is even after doubling my medicines for it.

Hello,
It is not related to zzquil.
If blood pressure is persistently high, you can consult a physician and start on antihypertensives like amlodipine.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
