Blood pressure
My blood pressure readings from few weeks are elevated.. readings around 140/90... sometimes 142/95,143/97,136/95 and so on.
One time it goes 149/100..
Heart rate is in between 70-80 while resting.
And 90-100 above when walking or moving around.
Doctor prescribed me met xl 12.5 for 15 days.
Is it blood pressure medication?
I heard Blood pressure medication cannot stop once you start..
After 15 days of taking this medicine can i stop this?
Kindly suggest
