View allI've been taking a tablet every day for my blood pressure, and now my doctor has also prescribed stemetil MD 5 mg twice a day for 5 days. I'm just wondering if there are any interactions or side effects I should be aware of with this combination?
Stemetil MD 5mg, containing prochlorperazine, is typically prescribed for nausea, vomiting, and vertigo, and taking it twice daily for 5 days is likely intended to address a specific symptom or condition, such as migraines or inner ear disturbances, rather than directly affecting your blood pressure management.

We've been giving our mom Axcer 90 mg along with other meds like Atocor, Ecospirin, and stuff for her thyroid for about two months now. We're wondering if we could stop the Axcer since we've been on it for a while and honestly, it's just really expensive. We can't keep up with the cost. Is there a cheaper alternative that works just as well? Would love to hear your advice on this.
no do not stop it without doctors advice,as you say you are having affordability issues,ask your doctor for alternate medication

I'm really concerned about this ongoing chest pain I've been experiencing along with pain in my left arm. It's been happening quite a lot over the past eight months. I'm trying to figure out what's really going on. Any ideas what could be causing this?
This could be a sign of a heart condition, specifically angina or a heart attack. It is important to seek immediate medical attention. In the meantime, you can take aspirin (e.g. Bayer Aspirin) 325mg to help reduce the risk of blood clot formation.
