Question 1

I'm dealing with depression and recently had some heart tests done - my TMT came back negative, and both my ECG and echo were normal. However, my doctor prescribed me macsart 40 for blood pressure. I'm confused and a bit worried. Why would they prescribe BP medicine if my tests are normal? Any advice would be appreciated.

Question 2

I've been having some concerns after a medical camp at my office where my BP was checked. The first reading was 120180 and the second was 110170. The doctor suggested I take Lasix for a day and then start on Telma 40 mg for 10 days. I've just started the medication yesterday. Over the past week, I've reduced my salt intake and started doing yoga. Before starting the medication, my BP readings were 110150, 105145, 110150, and 115155. Yesterday I took Lasix at 3 pm and today 1 tablet of Telma 40 mg at 8 am. My BP reading at 7:30 pm today was 14090. I'm feeling a bit different after the meds and am wondering if they're too strong or just right. What do you think is happening?

Accepted Answer

It seems like your blood pressure is gradually stabilizing, which is a positive sign, but a reading of 14090 is still on the higher side. It's normal to feel a bit different when starting medication, but if you're concerned or feel any discomfort, its important to check in with your doctor to ensure the dosage is appropriate for you.

Question 3

I'm really concerned because my cholesterol is still high even after changing my diet and starting to walk regularly for the last four months. I was really hoping these changes would help. My doctor prescribed Rosubest 10mg, and I'm worried about whether this medication could affect my liver. I had a grade 2 fatty liver before and my LFT blood report showed inflammation. Could taking this tablet make that worse? Just trying to get a sense of what I should look out for.

Accepted Answer

Rosuvastatin (Rosubest 10mg) can potentially affect liver function, especially with a pre-existing grade 2 fatty liver and elevated LFTs; however, your doctor may have considered this risk and prescribed it under careful monitoring; ensure regular liver function tests (every 6-12 weeks) and report any symptoms like fatigue, jaundice, or abdominal pain to your doctor, who may adjust the dosage or consider alternative treatments.
