I've been dealing with headaches last week that lasted for two days, and my BP was at 240160. I got an MRIMRA done, and luckily everything was normal. Started taking Cilacar 10mg once a day, and from the next day, my BP seemed under control. But today, it suddenly spiked to 180120 this evening. I can only get in to see a doctor tomorrow. Should I consider taking half of the Cilacar 10mg now to help lower it?

I'm feeling really stressed because I couldn't sleep last night and today I found out my blood pressure is 150100. I'm currently taking Metosortan 50 every day, and it usually keeps my BP in check. Can you recommend something to lower my blood pressure and help me get a good night's sleep?

It seems like you are experiencing elevated blood pressure and difficulty sleeping. To help lower your blood pressure and improve your sleep, I recommend adding a medication like Amlodipine 5mg to further control your blood pressure. Additionally, you can consider taking a medication like Zolpidem 5mg to help with your sleep. However, please consult your healthcare provider before starting any new medication to ensure it is safe and appropriate for you.
