April Anderson+FollowIs Your BP Med Making You Cough?Lisinopril is one of the most popular blood pressure meds in the US, but did you know it can cause a super annoying dry cough that can last up to two months?

Docs say it’s a common side effect, and if it’s driving you nuts, you can ask your doctor about switching meds. Wild how something so common can have such a weird side effect! #HealthNews #Lisinopril #BloodPressure #Wellness #PharmacyFacts #Health187Share
Allison Bauer+FollowThese Common Meds Can Trigger Anaphylaxis?!Just found out NSAIDs, H2 blockers, and penicillin can actually up your risk of anaphylaxis—even if you’ve only had mild reactions before. The wild part? Getting the drug through an IV might be safer than popping a pill at home. Docs are super careful in hospitals, but re-exposure in daily life is where things get risky. If you’ve ever had a weird reaction to meds, maybe double-check before taking them again! #HealthAlert #DrugSafety #Anaphylaxis #PharmacyFacts #MedicalNews #Health174Share
nathan87+FollowDiovan Drama: What Not to MixIf you or someone you know is on Diovan for blood pressure or heart issues, listen up! Mixing it with stuff like potassium supplements, ibuprofen, or certain diuretics can cause some wild side effects—think high potassium, kidney problems, or even fainting spells. Even alcohol can make things worse. Always spill the tea to your doctor about everything you’re taking (yes, even vitamins and herbs) before starting Diovan. Better safe than sorry! #MedicationSafety #Diovan #HealthTips #PharmacyFacts #Health60Share
