Details:

My blood pressure is low and at times very sluggish, depressed. I have been on this medication for 11/2yrs. I started with 50gr in the morning and 100 at bedtime. Now I have been cut back to 125 at night. My blood pressure varies from 90/62 to 100/69

Added 13 Dec 2010:

wrong dosage was entered. Should have read 50g in the morning and 75 g at night. The evening dose was reduced from 100g. Sorry about the confusion

Yes, Imuran has induced hypotension (low blood pressure).

You should talk with your doctor.
