Does Centrum from A to Z effects blood pressure? - High & Low Blood Pressure Message Board

I remember I took it few years ago and I got a high reading (150 over 100) is that related to Centrum or it was a coincidence?

I have been taking centrum silver which I think is similar, for the past 6 years it has never affected my blood pressure. I believe it may be coincidental. Although it could possibly effect some people differently.

And your heart rate hasn't increased?

It was usually in the 70 range, although now that I'm taking a beta blocker it is around 60 bpm.

oh, I have taken Magnesium supplements to regulate and lower my heart rate. It works as if it's a Beta Blocker but without the side effects.
