BP Medication
Hi I am 31 yrs old. I came to know about 15 days back tat I have high BP. My BP was 150/100 initially and I was advised amlogard 2.5mg for few days. After monitoring BP almost every day it was still in 140s and 90s. After one week doctor suggested to take amlogard 5 mg. Now I have been taking tat from past 10 days. Now my BP is 130s and 90s range. I travel in bike daily 40kms up and down. When I check BP after traveling it will be usually high. After relaxing for sometime if I check BP it will be in Normal range. And few times when I measured BP it's in 120s and 80s. When I tried to take second opinion doctor suggested to take Telma 40 tablet. Both the doctors who suggested me tablets are cardiologist. I have been consulting cardiologist since I am experiencing mild chest pain daily. But all cardiologist have ruled out my chest pain is due to cardiac origin. Please let me know which tablet I should take for BP. AMLOGARD 5 MG OR TELMA 40

u need to trust ur doctor. amlodipine is well tolerated drug widely used fr bp problem so is the telma since ur body has accepted amlodipine u shud continue with dat. remember docterine in bp management is it shudnt decresed rapidly by a drug so ur doctor initiated it wid lower dose n then increased. also once started it has to continue throughout life since body start depending on it.. nvr ever quit bp medication on ur own ..cz sudden surge hs devastating effects and symptoms like acute brain stroke leading to paralysis. so better follow ur doctor advice get regular checkups.go fr mornig walkstop alcohol smoking if any it wud help alot staying u healthy.
