The asthmatic hypertensive patient should have some groups of the antihypertensive drugs that do not cause bronchospasm or chronic cough.
Many patients receive drugs for their high blood pressure and when they have worse respiratory symptoms they just increase the dose as they were told by their doctors. At the same time some doctors prescribe some drugs that may act without side effects for sometime then symptoms start to happen as chronic cough.
Any asthmatic hypertensive should take safe antihypertensives and should carry personal card stating his condition and the drugs he receives. Hypertensive crisis that is common should be treated in the hospital using safe drugs and the patient's card will be very valuable.
