I've just been told I have high blood pressure and today I took my first dose of Treples 406.25 in the morning. But now it's evening, and I've come down with a slight fever and a headache. Is it okay for me to take Nicip cold and flu tablet with everything else going on?

View allIm 52 and have a history of CAD. I went through bypass surgery back in 2004, and now my hearts at 35EF. Im currently doing a chelation treatment and am really wondering if this is the right move for me. Could you please explain if this treatment is beneficial or not?
Chelation therapy is a controversial treatment for heart disease. While some studies suggest that it may help reduce the buildup of plaques in the arteries, the overall evidence is not strong enough to recommend it as a standard treatment for CAD patients. It is important to note that chelation therapy also carries risks and side effects. In your case, as a CAD patient who has already undergone bypass surgery, it is crucial to follow the advice of your cardiologist. They are in the best position to assess your individual case and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan for you. It is important to continue taking any prescribed medications, such as antiplatelets, statins, and blood pressure medications, as these have been proven to reduce the risk of heart complications in CAD patients. If you have concerns about your current treatment plan or are considering chelation therapy, I recommend discussing this with your cardiologist to get personalized advice based on your medical history and current condition.

I'm a 40-year-old guy and I've been taking tablets since 2015. Originally, I was on Stamlo 5, but recently my blood pressure was consistently high around 140110 to 140100, even with the Stamlo 5. The doctor switched my medication to Envas 10 and Hydrazide 12.5, and now my blood pressure is under control. I'm just a bit worried about any side effects these might have. Could you give me some advice?
Envas 10 is a brand name for Enalapril, which is an ACE inhibitor that helps relax blood vessels to lower blood pressure. Hydrazide 12.5 is a combination medication containing Hydrochlorothiazide, which is a diuretic that helps your body get rid of extra salt and water to lower blood pressure. Some common side effects of Enalapril include dizziness, cough, and high potassium levels. Hydrochlorothiazide can cause dizziness, dehydration, and electrolyte imbalances. It's important to monitor for any side effects and report them to your doctor. Make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to monitor your blood pressure and adjust your medication as needed.

I've been experiencing this strange sensation for the last two weeks where it feels like my heart is skipping a beat or just stops briefly, and then it goes back to normal. It can happen maybe 5 to 10 times throughout the day, and it's pretty random. Is this something I should be worried about?
It sounds like you may be experiencing episodes of irregular heartbeats, also known as palpitations. In this case, it is important to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. However, if you are looking for over-the-counter options to help manage your symptoms, you can try taking magnesium supplements. Magnesium can help regulate your heart rhythm and reduce the frequency of palpitations. You can take magnesium supplements such as "Nature Made Magnesium 250 mg" once daily. Remember to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement regimen.
