Is there an over the counter medicine to take to reduce my retaining water?

Here is some information on your topic, probably more then you need, but it all pertains to hypertension (high blood pressure). It is up to your physician to prescribe for your water retention:

Blood pressure medications come in many forms. You may be prescribed a diuretic to help manage sodium and fluid retention, and possibly medication to reduce your stress level. Many of these medications have known side effects; so consult with your doctor before starting any prescription. The following are commonly used high blood pressure medications.

*
Diuretics: The human body often retains higher levels of salt and water than it needs. Sometimes called "water pills," diuretics flush water and salt out through the urine. Diuretics are often the first high blood pressure medications prescribed.
*
Anxiety Medication: Stress is often linked to high blood pressure. If you suffer from overwhelming stress, anxiety medication may be prescribed. By calming your emotions, the medication may also help lower your blood pressure.
*
Alpha Blockers: Alpha-blockers control nerve impulses, allowing blood vessels to relax. This allows blood to flow without encountering as much pressure.
*
Beta Blockers: Beta blockers target receptors in the heart and blood vessels, making the heart pump at a slower rate and with less force.
*
Angiostensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) Inhibitors: This type of high blood pressure medication prevents the formation of angiostensin II, the hormone that causes blood vessels to contract. ACE inhibitors cause the blood vessels to relax thereby lowering blood pressure.
*
Angiostensin Agonists: Instead of preventing the formation of angiostensin II, these medications actually block the blood vessels from angiostensin II.
*
Calcium Channel Blockers (CCBs): By controlling the flow of calcium into cells, these medications help the heart and blood vessels to relax.
* Vasodilators: Vasodilators relax the muscles around the blood vessels, reducing resistance to blood flow.

Fluids are a way to raise blood pressure. You might have to change vitamins.
