I'm taking some meds for high blood pressure, like METOLAR XR and TELMA 20, and I have a TMT test for a pre-employment check-up coming up. I'm a bit worried because I really can't afford to fail this test. Do I need to stop taking these meds on the day of the test, or will they affect the results? Can you let me know what I should do?

You can continue taking METOLAR XR and TELMA 20 on the day of your TMT test. These medications are commonly used for high blood pressure and should not significantly affect the results of the test. It is important to follow your regular dosage schedule. Good luck with your pre-employment medical test!"
