I'm really worried because for the past four months I've been dealing with high blood pressure, fatigue, and dizziness. A month ago, I saw a physician who told me my BP was 150100 and put me on some tablets. I started with Prolomet XL 25, then added Amlong 2.5 after dinner. For a couple of weeks, things seemed better with my BP at 13080, but the dizziness and fatigue haven't gone away. I've never felt like this before. Do you think there are other medicines I should consider or any other advice you might have?

It's good that your blood pressure has improved with the medications you are currently taking. However, if you are still experiencing dizziness and fatigue, it may be necessary to adjust your medication regimen. I would recommend adding a medication like Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) 12.5mg once daily in the morning. This medication can help further control your blood pressure and reduce the dizziness and fatigue symptoms you are experiencing. Remember to consult with your physician before making any changes to your medication regimen."

View allI'm a 37-year-old guy and I've been dealing with anxiety for a few years now, which makes my hands sweat and sometimes I get chest pains that last for seconds or minutes. I've been on Gudpress AM 50 for the past six months, but it makes my face feel tight for about six hours after taking it. I stopped taking it two days ago, but my blood pressure has been around 150100 and 14090 in this time. Is there another blood pressure medication I can try? Before Gudpress AM 50, I was taking Cinod 10. Any advice would be great.
It sounds like you are experiencing side effects from Gudpress AM 50 (which contains Telmisartan and Amlodipine) such as tightness on your face. Since you are also dealing with anxiety symptoms and high blood pressure, you can consider switching to a different medication for your blood pressure. I recommend discussing with your doctor about starting a different medication such as Losartan (brand name: Cozaar) at a suitable dosage to help manage your blood pressure without causing unwanted side effects. Losartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker that can be effective in treating high blood pressure and has a lower risk of causing facial tightness compared to Amlodipine. Remember to consult with your doctor for a proper evaluation and prescription adjustment based on your individual health needs.
