Hello,
You did not say what medicine you are taking (drug name, strength), so the doctor cannot give specific advice for headaches, shoulder and neck pain after taking it What's wrong with your blood pressure medication. You should see a Cardiologist to assess your condition after taking antihypertensive drugs and cardiovascular risk factors, through which the doctor will advise on a detailed treatment and monitoring regimen.
If you need more advice, you can register for examination and consultation at the hospitals of Vinmec Health System. Thank you for asking questions and sharing concerns with Vinmec doctors.
