I'm Gajendra, and I'm 30. Lately, I've been having trouble with high blood pressure and a fast pulse. What should I do about this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For high blood pressure and elevated pulse, you can start by making lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, and managing stress. Additionally, you can take medication to help control your blood pressure. I recommend taking "Losartan" at a starting dosage of 50mg once daily. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper monitoring and adjustment of your treatment plan.

For the management of Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD) with severe Mitral Stenosis (MS), severe Mitral Regurgitation (MR), moderate eccentric Aortic Regurgitation (AR) with normal ejection fraction, the following treatment approach can be considered: 1.
