Written by: Dr. Rowena | Posted: Jul 14 2009
Q: How can a person have hypertension and bradycardia at the same time and what does this mean?
A: High blood pressure and a slow heart beat, bradycardia, are two different problems that may or may not be related. A side effect of certain drugs is a slow heart beat. Damage to the heart from uncontrolled high blood pressure and other conditions may result in a slow heart beat. To understand the source of your bradycardia, you need to talk to your doctor.
