I'm a 67-year-old who's been taking Revelol XL 50, but my blood pressure numbers always seem to hang around 15090. I've decided to switch to Concor 5 in hopes of getting them down to 12080. Is this a good move, and could you explain what I might expect during this transition?

I'm taking Inderal 40 mg since August 2019, and recently I've cut it down to 20 mg for the past month. My pulse rate seems fine now. I'm wondering how I can safely stop taking this medication. What steps should I follow to withdraw from it?

To withdraw from Inderal (Propranolol) 20 mg, it is important to gradually taper off the medication to avoid any potential withdrawal symptoms. You can start by reducing the dosage to 10 mg for a few weeks, and then further decrease it to 10 mg every other day for another few weeks. Finally, you can stop taking the medication completely. It is advisable to consult your healthcare provider for personalized guidance and monitoring during this process.

I'm 24 and just had an ECG. One doctor mentioned something about ST depression, but another said it's no big deal. Should I be worried about the ST depression? Is it something that can be treated?

ST depression on an ECG can be a sign of heart ischemia or other cardiac conditions. It is important to further evaluate the cause of the ST depression to determine the appropriate treatment. Depending on the underlying cause, treatment may involve medications such as aspirin, beta blockers, or nitroglycerin. In some cases, procedures like angioplasty or bypass surgery may be necessary. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
