Question 1

I've been monitoring my blood pressure and it's usually around 13090 or 13787, which I'm not sure if that's high or normal. Do I need to be on any medication for this? At home, it's typically 13086, but at work, I've noticed it goes up to 14085 or sometimes even 14080. How can I keep my blood pressure at a healthy level? Should I be worried about these readings or is this something normal? Could you give me some advice on this?

A heart rate of 90 to 110 beats per minute can be considered normal for adults at rest. However, it is always important to monitor your heart rate and consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice.

Accepted Answer

After consuming liquor, it is generally not recommended to take certain medications due to potential interactions. However, based on the medications you are currently taking, it is safe to take the evening dose of Ecosprin (aspirin) after consuming liquor. It is important to avoid alcohol with Brilinta (Ticagrelor) as it may increase the risk of bleeding. It is also advisable to avoid alcohol with Metformin. As for Carca and Cardace, which are likely beta-blockers and ACE inhibitors respectively, it is generally safe to take them with alcohol in moderation. It is always best to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
