I'm a bit concerned because my doctor has put me on Lipitas 10 (Rosuvastatin) to take at night, along with Sartel LN (Telmisartan 40) and Cilnidipine. I stumbled across some info that mentioned a serious drug interaction between Cilnidipine and Lipitas. Is that something I should be worried about?

Prolonged use of clinidipine 10 mg can cause hypotension ,that is a serious side effect. whereas telma causes sinus congestion,tachycardia,changes in vision, large ives and fainting etc.. Both telma and clinidepine are recommended for the control of BP.,You can continue taking the medications..

View allI'm currently taking medication for my blood pressure, but my last reading was 14583. Should I think about adjusting my dose, or is this level considered controlled? Can you provide some guidance on what I should do?
A blood pressure reading of 14583 is slightly elevated. It is important to consult with your doctor before making any changes to your medication dosage. However, if your doctor agrees, you may need to increase the dose of your current medication or add an additional medication to better control your blood pressure. It is important to follow your doctor's guidance on medication adjustments.

I've been having some chest issues and I went to the doctor who said it's just my bone and everything's normal, so he prescribed Pan 20 for 10 days before meals once a day, Bandy medicine, and a vitamin D sachet to take once a week. But I'm still a bit worried because I sometimes feel chest pain when I take a deep breath, and in the mornings on my left side. The pain's really sharp, but it only lasts about 45 seconds and happens maybe 6 or 7 times a day. I had anxiety about three years ago, and I also sleep on my stomach. Could that be related or something I should be more concerned about? Any advice would be really helpful.
It is important to follow up with your doctor regarding the chest pain you are experiencing, especially if it is recurring multiple times a day. The sharp pain in the left chest that lasts for a few seconds could be due to various reasons, including musculoskeletal issues, anxiety, or even gastrointestinal problems. In the meantime, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relief medication like Acetaminophen (Tylenol) for the chest pain. However, if the pain persists or worsens, it is crucial to seek medical attention for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit worried about my dad's blood pressure. He got it checked today just for a routine check-up and it was 144100. He's 53 and doesn't have any medical conditions. He's pretty active and walks 2 to 3 km every day. Is this blood pressure range okay for his age, or should he start taking medication to control it? What do you suggest?
Your father's blood pressure reading of 144100 mmHg is considered stage 2 hypertension, which is above the normal range for his age; given his active lifestyle and lack of underlying medical conditions, lifestyle modifications such as increasing physical activity, reducing sodium intake, and stress management should be attempted first, before considering medication
