The heat wave just continues and its extremely important to stay hydrated when you're out on the tennis courts. But, be aware - it's not just the heat that can cause you to become dehydrated. Certain common drugs can also lead to dehydration because they cause you to urinate or perspire more than usual. These include diuretics (obviously), antihistamines, blood pressure drugs and a few psychiatric medications. If you're taking any of these, talk to your doctor to get all of the details and then up your water intake and avoid playing during the hottest times of the day.

Beware of these drugs, since in findrxonline say that there are medicines which are prescription drugs that should only be taken with prescription medications such as Vicodin, hydrocodone, lortab, among others, that must be taken with observation of a doctor.
