BLOOD PRESSURE EFFECTS OF CANCER

Anti-VEGF drugs are some of the cancer medications that result in an increase in blood pressure. These medicines block blood flow supply to tumors and, in effect, blocks other blood vessels in the body, also resulting in a shoot up of the blood pressure.

While other treatments, such as chemotherapy and also certain targeted drugs or medication, may cause a reverse effect in the blood pressure and may indicate detrimental results as the other.
