Hello there. I can understand your concern. .no. It's not possible. The antihypertensive will control your blood pressure and never increase it. Restrict your salt intake, practice meditation and do walking for at least 40 minutes everyday. Consult a MD consultant physician in person for further evaluation and management. Best regards.
