His BP fell as low as 70/50 persistently..A general physician asked me to stop BP medicines untill it crosses 130/80... It has been 20 days his BP has stuck to 120/80 .. I am concerned if it is advisable to stop STAMLO 5. I have heard that it cannot stop once started...How long should I avoid this? The two medicines which he is taking are Levipil 500 and Urimax D.Please advice..
