Ccad 20 MG Tablet Health Feed

Health Query

Respected sir/ madam my mother has bp and she is taking cilnidipine 5 mg tablet every day. We monitor her bp everyday with bp monitoring machine. I checked in some websites that normal range bp is systolic 90 to 120 and dialostic 60 to 80. Should she continue taking medicine if the bp readings are in between these values? Should she take medicine if systolic is less than 90 and dialostic is in-between 60 and 80? Should she take medicine if systolic is in between 90 and 120 and dialostic is less than 60? Thank you.

Your attention to your mother's health is admirable. It's important to note that while i'm a homeopath and a clinical psychologist, i'm not a conventional medical doctor. Therefore, decisions related to prescription medications, like the cilnidipine your mother is taking, should be made in consultation with her treating physician.
That said, I can provide some general advice. Blood pressure medication is often prescribed to be taken regularly, regardless of daily fluctuations in readings, be...more

Asked for male, 27 years old from Bilaspur

Hello sir, My dad is 64 years old. He suffers from type 2 diabetes and hypertension. He takes Olmax LN 40 containing olmesartan 40 mg and cilnidipine 10 mg for HTN. He also takes an antiplatelet drug Clopilet A 75 (containing Aspirin 75 mg and Clopidogrel 75 mg) and a statin Lipigo 5 mg (containing rosuvastatin 5 mg). 1.Can he take omega 3 fatty acids like EPA and DHA 500 mg daily? Omega 3 fatty acids have been found to be very useful in reducing synthesis of prostaglandin series 2 molecules and thus are anti inflammatory. Thus is also good for cardiovascular and joint health. The American Heart Association (AHA) also recommends consumption of upto 1000 mg of EPA+DHA for heart health daily.

I totally understand that is very hard to deal with medical conditions for a long time and be on medications on a daily basis for physical health problems. On top of those, you may be drained of the possibility of being depressed due to chronic medical conditions, the symptoms of which you have laid out in your description of problems. I also believe that you may need to have medications started for your depression and it is usually a short course of 3-4 months with a subsequent 2-month taper. I...more

This is usual story of long lasting diabetes. As ckd advances blood sugar becomes normal or even low as most of the antidiabetic medicines are excreted through kidney and pt feels that his diabetes is cured and he does not need medicine.
Please take care of your ckd under supervision of a nephrologist.

I am taking eritel ln 40 once a day for hypertension want to know what kind of medicine is this and how it helps to control hypertension. My bp is 130/80.

Dr. Kumar Kenchetty

Cardiologist•Mangalore

It is a combination of two medicines. Telmisartan and cilnidipine. Both these medicines act by dilating your blood vessels. Telmisartan also helps your kidney and heart by various mechanisms.

Amlodipine is much more effective in controlling pressure than cilnidipine 10. If she takes telmaH and amlodipine 5 mg her BP should become normal in 3 weeks
