I'm on blood pressure meds myself, and the doctor was ticked I WASN'T doing this. If they have you on a "water pill" prescription as well, like HCTZ, that is supposed to help you shed water weight and make your blood pressure medications work better.

If you're still worried, most diet plans say you can drink 6 glasses and still do OK.
