Author(s): Kevin Landefeld, Holly Gonzales and Gary E SanderKevin Landefeld, Holly Gonzales and Gary E Sander
62-year-old female presents with hypertensive urgency while taking daily NSAIDs. This case demonstrates the effect of NSAIDs on BP, an often over-looked etiology of secondary hypertension. The detrimental effects of NSAIDs upon blood pressure have been well documented. The report reiterates and reviews the severity of the problem. We will review the existing literature and discuss the importance of small increases in blood pressure. This paper has not been submitted elsewhere, is not under review, or published previously and all of the authorship are aware of and approve the manuscript being submitted to this journal.
