I'm a bit confused about the difference between Prolomet XL 50mg and Prolomet XL R 50mg5mg. I don't have high blood pressure, so which one should I be considering, if at all?

My brother just went through open heart surgery last month, and now he's been battling pneumonia for two weeks. He's been admitted to the ICU due to breathing issues. They did an ECG and discovered his heart function is down to 24. I'm really worried, and I'm wondering if we could take him on an 11-hour flight to the USA to address this situation. What do you think?

I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure. Normally, it sits around 12090, but every now and then, it'll spike to about 130100, or drop to 10080. It used to be at 10070. I'm trying to find a natural solution and wondering if Ayurveda could help manage this, as I really don't want to be on medication forever. I lead a pretty active lifestyle, and I'm really careful with my diet and regular exercise. What do you think? Is there an alternative approach I could try?
