Since you have been taking Telma 20 (Telmisartan 20mg), continue to take it as prescribed by your physician.

A really strong, pounding pulse all over your body, even visible in the neck and stomach, can be a concerning symptom. Since heart issues have been ruled out, this may be related to anxiety.

Question 5

I'm taking Metocard XL 12.5 once daily as prescribed by my doctor. My blood pressure is currently at 11276 and my pulse is 59. Is it okay to take the medication just once a day, or should I consider twice daily?

The medication prescribed to you, Metocard XL 12.5, is typically taken once a day for the management of high blood pressure. Since your current blood pressure is within normal range (11276) and your pulse rate is 59, it seems that once daily dosing is appropriate for you. It is important to follow your doctor's instructions regarding the dosage and frequency of the medication.
