I've been taking cilametxl 50mg, moxvas 0.3mg, and minipress XL 5mg every morning and night, but I've noticed that my blood pressure drops temporarily and then spikes to around 17598 or 18595 by 4 p.m. and is high again early in the morning around 6 a.m. Why does this happen, and what can I do to manage these fluctuations better?

I'm feeling this heavy sensation and pain in my chest, which makes it really hard to get through my daily routine. I've tried taking some medicine for it, but it doesnt seem to be helping. Sometimes the pain disappears, but then it comes back, and the heaviness has been there for about two days now. What should I do?

take tablet zerodol and tablet pantoprazole

I'm really curious and a bit concerned about something. Can taking the beta blocker metoprolol, especially the Met XL version, lead to higher blood triglyceride levels? If that's the case, is there another beta blocker that might be a better option?

Yes, metoprolol XL can potentially cause an increase in blood triglyceride levels as a side effect. Another beta blocker that may be a better option to consider is Nebivolol (brand name Bystolic) which is less likely to affect lipid levels compared to metoprolol XL. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider to discuss the best treatment option for you.
