What Are The Side Effects Of Diovan And Toprol

I have taken Diovan and tropal for a number of years. About a month ago I started taking glucosamine condrotin for osteoarthritis in my hands. My BP was always around 110-120 over about 70. Today at doctors my BP was 150/80 and later in the day 130/80. I m thinking it may be due to the glucosamine condrotin . I see that it can cause an increase in BP , right?

the quality control of chondroitin glucosamine is not great. sometimes it has a LOT of salt in it. that can raise blood pressure.
