I'm really worried about my husband. He's been on amlopres 5 for his blood pressure for about four years, and it's been normal for a while now. Do you think it's okay for him to stop taking it? Also, he's been taking tonac 5 for his cholesterol, which is at the borderline. Does he need to take that every day? Could you please advise?

yes u can take

I've been experiencing some weird noises coming from my chest and stomach, kind of like gurgling sounds. It started happening a lot, then stopped for about a month, but now it's back again. I'm confused if it's related to gas or something else. I've checked my pulse when it happens, and sometimes it pauses, but I'm not sure if I'm just not focusing enough because of the noise. It kind of feels like when your stomach growls from hunger, but it's happening in my chest. I've had PVCs with bigeminy and couplets, and once there was sinus tachycardia. I used to take beta blockers for anxiety, but I stopped at some point. Do you think this gurgling is related to my heart somehow? I also had acid reflux issues about two years ago, if that's relevant. My throat makes noises too. Is this something to worry about?

I'm really concerned about my dad's blood pressure. He's been dealing with high BP for a while, but it was stable and normal the past few days. Today it shot up to 153110 and he took his usual Tazlock 20, which has Telmisartan IP in it. Is this something we should be really worried about and what steps should we take from here?

yes you can use
