Hi.  patients taking atomoxetine experience a small increase in heart rate (on average less than 10 beats per minute) and/or  a small increase in blood pressure (on average less than 5mm of Hg). Consult your treating doctor for further management

Atomoxetine can increase BP slightly, if it is mild leave it, else consult your doctor and make the necessary changes. Good luck
