Sulfa Drug List For Blood Pressure Meds
UpdatedI am allergic to sulfa drugs. Having a hard time finding the right blood pressure medicine. Can you please help me find blood pressure meds that don't contain sulfa

Hello, Sherrie! How are you?
What specific sulfa drug or drugs have you had a reaction to?
While many blood pressure medications are related, not everyone that is allergic to a sulfa drug, such as Bactrim, is also allergic to all the rest. I am a good example of that. I had a very bad reaction to Bactrim several years ago, but I am fine with blood pressure and cardiac medications.
What blood pressure medications have you tried?
The FDA lists the symptoms of an allergic reaction as possibly including swelling, trouble breathing, hives, itchy rash and angioedema.
Diovan hct, zebeta, hyzaar, bystolic, cardizem, I can go on and on. I have bad reactions to a lot more. I have lupus and am allergic to sulfa meds. Can you recommend a blood pressure pill that doesn't bring out lupus flares?
