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?

I've noticed my heart rate has been pretty low for the past couple of days, like around 55 beats per minute when I'm just resting or sleeping. Should I be worried about this, or is it normal?

Slow heart rate can be concerning, especially if it persists for a few days. A heart rate of 55 beats per minute or above at rest or during sleeping time may indicate bradycardia. It is important to identify the underlying cause of this slow heart rate. Some common causes of bradycardia include medication side effects, electrolyte imbalances, heart disease, or an underactive thyroid gland. If you are experiencing symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, chest pain, or shortness of breath along with the slow heart rate, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. Your doctor may recommend further evaluation, which may include an electrocardiogram (ECG) or other tests to determine the cause of the bradycardia. In some cases, medication may be prescribed to help regulate the heart rate. However, the specific treatment will depend on the underlying cause of the slow heart rate. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and management plan.

I'm really struggling to manage my high blood pressure and I'm feeling worried about the side effects I'm experiencing. Right now, I'm taking Amlopres AT 25 in the morning and plain Amlodipine 2.5 in the evening, but I just don't feel fresh and there's this persistent pain in my ankle. I did try switching to Metaprolol, but it only made my BP and heart rate go up. I also attempted using Telmesartan with Amlodipine, which controlled my BP, but then my heart rate increased. I'm feeling stuck and a bit lost about what to do next. My lipid profile is under control with cholesterol at 150 and triglycerides at 76, and my fasting blood sugar is 106. Could you suggest a better medication plan or any other advice?

Take Temsan AM for 15 days , and check BP after 15 days

I've been trying to eat better and exercise a bit more, but I'm worried because my triglyceride levels are still going up. Last year they were 286, and now they're 365. I've been taking fish liver oil and eating flax seeds regularly. Do you have any advice on what else I could do?

Statins and fibrates are medications that can help lower triglycerides. Statins primarily lower LDL (bad) cholesterol levels, but they can also modestly reduce triglycerides. Fibrates are specifically effective at lowering triglyceride levels
