My mother's blood pressure is 184 over 110. She was recently in the hospital for frequent urination and a UTI, which caused dehydration and elevated kidney numbers. She takes Carvedilol 12.5, Lisinopril 5mg once a day, and Furosemide 40 mg once a day. She has swelling in her feet, shortness of breath, and slight wheezing. She has a history of AFIB and CHF, and just turned 85 years old. Can she take one of her blood pressure medications to lower her pressure in the meantime?
