It can. Alka Selzer contains sodium bicarbonate, which would add salt to your diet. In most hypertensive (high blood pressure) patients, you want to limit your salt intake. Thus, I would not recommend taking this medication unless you talked to your doctor.

If you are having indigestion, there are other medications you can take that will not effect your blood pressure. Talk with a pharmacist or your doctor.
