 Interesting. Some patients develop worse hypertension with age which can include more sensitivity to caffeine. I am unaware of a clear link between hypertension/caffeine related to your current antiretroviral regimen. An evaluation of liver and kidney status may be reasonable to look for possible explanations after discussion with your HIV specialist. KH | ||||||||
