Common painkillers raise heart risk

A recent Reuters story announces that Common Painkillers Raise Heart Risk. It appears that the painkillers aspirin, ibuprofen, and acetaminophen when taken by men most days of the week, were about 1/3 more likely to have high blood pressure than those who did not. Please take the time to read the entire article before you stop taking these medications. If you are suppose to take them, keep taking them. But maybe try to find a way to get to the point where you don't need them all of the time. The moral of this is, the less medicine you have to take, the better off you will be. But again, if you have to take it, don't stop just because of this.
