Tenormin and losakind aren't bad but role of tenormin in controlling High BP is dubious. Metosartan is superior product. It contains Metoprolol and Telmasartan. Janumet is better drug as your age. It won't cause hypoglycemia and it is weight neutral medicine. Si current regimen is quite better.

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

Endocrinologist•Hubli-Dharwad

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.
