Need to add a third pill to my blood pressure medications. I am now on carvedilol 25 mg 2 x a day and losartan 50 mg 2 x a day now it's way too high when I get up in the morning. I don't know why?
Which drug has least side effects, clonidine or nifedipine?

Hi, Smiley!
It's difficult to compare side effects as they depend on the individual's response to any given medication.

I would discuss your options with your doctor... a dosage adjustment of your current meds, adding a third medication, or possibly trying a new combo.
