I'm 21 and I've noticed my blood pressure readings are a bit all over the place. It was 149 over 78 at one point, and then it changed to 109 over 70. My pulse rate also jumps around from 110 to 72. I'm a bit worried and wondering if there's an issue or if this is normal for my age. Can you help me understand what's going on?

I'm currently on Telpres MT 50mg for my blood pressure, and I'm wondering if it's alright to take it after dinner or just before bed. Does the timing affect how well the medication works? I'm a bit concerned about whether taking it at night might cause any issues or side effects while I'm sleeping. What do you think would be the best time to take it?

It is recommended to take Telpres MT 50mg once daily in the morning, preferably at the same time each day. This helps to maintain a consistent level of the medication in your body and optimize its effectiveness in controlling blood pressure.
