Blood pressure in my boots.

Day 12 and I am going okay. Say my GP today for another script for champix. I am feeling a bit flat and that could be because my systolic BP is 83! I had low BP as a smoker, but wow. It could be a side effect of the champix, or my body adjusting, but I hope it sorts itself out.

champix should not cause your blood pressure but if your are worried see your doctor.

Hi AP. You feeling any better? Just remember to make any positional changes slowly. If you're lying down, sit for a little while before you stand. If your BP has a postural drop, that'll save you from spinning out, or fainting. And make sure you're keeping the fluids up too! Hey and remember when you're a non smoker it'll all have been worth it.
