Tina, as far as I know you will not get an adverse reaction by taking the two together. One just makes the other less effective in doing its job. You should not have any of these symptoms unless you are allergic to the med. So basically taking the two together will not give you side effects like vomitting, nausea, hives, etc. Your blood pressure may become elevated if you comingle the two drugs, but as for adverse reactions you should not see any. Of course, depending on how high you bp is without medication should say whether you should take the chance of lessening the power of the bp med. But of course only your doc would know for sure. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.
