Can Prozac accelerate Hypertension? -

I am a usually well controlled hypertensive on Coreg (cardelivol), diovan and a thiazide. Last week I started a very small dose of Prozac (5 mg.). After 7 days of Prozac my BP is way out of control (e.g. 190/10). Do you think they are connected? I am getting in touch with my cardiologist tomorrow.

Taking prozac should have no effect on blood pressure. I take prozac and my pressure has not risen. It takes about 3 or 4 weeks before the medication takes affect.
