  5. I'm currently on metapro xl 50 mg and telmasartan 40 mg for about a month now because I've been dealing with spikes in blood pressure and sinus tachycardia. My doctor ruled out any secondary causes. I'm only 20 and I'm worried if I'm going to be on these medications for the rest of my life. They've helped me feel better and my heart feels calmer, but my doctor mentioned that if I dont continue, my heart might get damaged over time. Could you provide some advice on this?

It's good to hear that you are feeling better with the medications. Since you are experiencing spikes in blood pressure and sinus tachycardia, it is important to manage these conditions to prevent any potential damage to your heart in the long term. Both Metapro XL (Metoprolol) 50 mg and Telmisartan 40 mg are commonly used to control blood pressure and heart rate. It is possible that you may need to take these medications long-term to keep your condition under control and protect your heart health. It's essential to follow your doctor's advice and continue taking the medications as prescribed. If you have any concerns or experience any side effects, make sure to discuss them with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
