Cosart 25 MG Tablet Health Feed

Health Query

Hi, My father is suffering from systolic hypertension. He is diagnosed 3 years back. The hypertension history is first he was given with amlodipine+valsartan 5/80 mg (exforge) before sleep when he take that medicine his systolic blood pressure become normal but diastolic decreases to 50 or less then the medication was changed and he started with amlodipine 5 mg (Norvasc) before sleep but the problem remains same then the physician changed it from 5 mg to Amlodipine 2.5 mg (Lodopin) before sleep but the problem remain same and there was no success. We were referred to cardiologist who after taking the echo and ecg said that he is having no cardiac issues and suggested losartan 50 mg (eziday) before sleep. Now with this medication the issue is that his diastolic comes to normal if he takes medicine but systolic is going high up to 175 - 185 then he changes it to valsartan 80 mg (diovan) before sleep but the problem remain same with this medicine but the slight change that appears is his blood pressure remains normal till mid day and after mid day it starts going up and till night it again reaches to 165-175. I want to ask is there any solution for the above case. Your response will be much appreciated.

Go back to amlodipine. Keep systolic BP less than 150. Ignore diastolic BP. Measure his BP only once every two weeks on fixed dates after resting for ten minutes. Completely avoid measuring at any other time.

The nerve pain is due to long standing diabetes. That is what will lead to recurrent ulcers on feet. Please moisturise feet daily. Take treatment immediately if there is any sign of infection. Control diabetes and blood pressure well. Do not let her walk barefoot

Lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
Telmisartan plus Amlodepine (TELMA AM) is a good and safe combination. The other tablet mentioned is Losartan + Hydrochlothiazide. That too is good. Doctor must have changed to newer drug for getting better control. But if she is not comfortable with that, she can take the earlier combination. Thanks.

Losartan 25 x 2 is very similar to 50
ecospirin AV has two medicines, and side effects are possible. Plus 4-5 heart failure medicines. Check why these two are needed, or discuss case on phone. Best wishes.

Asked for male, 35 years old from Gurgaon

Hi Doctor, My age is 30 years. I was diagnosed with High Blood Pressure which used to be in range of 140-150/90-100 many a times. Based on the recommendations of Dr. I started with Telma-40 tablet, but my BP could not be controlled. He asked me to change the tablet to Trilosar 6.25, took observations for few weeks, then he recommended to go with Trilosar 12.5 Mg Tablet. I am taking this tablet from past 1-1.5 years on daily basis (1 in morning). After that, I have not visited any Doctor as I relocated to Delhi and never faced any issue related to health. I wanted to consult you on this tablet. Is this medicine safe for life long consumption or should I try something else (like reducing some salt as this tablet contains 3 salts).

YOu are on a good combination pill ad if there is no reason to change it you can continue it. Trilosar 6.25 mg Tablet is a combination of three medicines: Losartan, Amlodipine and Chlorthalidone. Losartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) and Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker (CCB). They work by widening and relaxing the blood vessels, thereby lowering blood pressure. Chlorthalidone is a diuretic which removes extra water and certain electrolytes from the body through urine. Over ti...more

Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
It is good to see that both BP and blood glucose are fairly well controlled. Increase in microalbuminuria and creatinine suggests that kidney are getting affected mostly due to diabetes.
One of the group of drugs recommended for hypertension with diabetes is ACE-Inhibitors like Lisinopril, Enalepri or ARBs like Losartan, Telmisartan or Olmesartan etc. Thanks.
