Nausea and vomiting tendency
My father has always had low pressure, but a few days ago he was feeling heavy headed and vomited twice following which he went to a doctor and got diagnosed with high blood pressure. It was 145 (High bp). So, he was advised a salt restricted diet. He was fine the next day. Today, again he felt heavy headed and vomited twice. The doctor then prescribed him STAMLO 5. He took it n felt better. But in the evening, he again felt vomiting tendency, the doctor then prescribed a tablet called ZOFER 8MG for the time being. Zofer 8mg is given after surgery/radiation therapy (acc to internet), but my father hasn't had any such surgery.
Will it be safe for him take the medicine?
It can be taken
It’s useful in all kind of vomiting
Surprise is why has giddiness and vomiting- sometimes it could be 1. BPPV - balance problem 2. A kind of stroke 3. Totally unrelated
If it recurs it’s better to show a neurologist and get MRI done
140-145 is not that severe to cause these many symptoms necessitating medicines
