This is a followup question for Dr. Anunai shrivastav who answered my question recently. He suggested to stop ramipril and take olmesartan 40 mg. Thanks for that. I will be obliged if he can tell me, if I can take telmisartan 40 mg which is consumed by my wife and is readily available with us. I can try that for a week if doctor has no reservations. Advice if amlodipine also can be continued with telmisartan. For olmesartan 40 mg ,i do not have prescription. I paste below my earlier question for reference as below:- I am diabetic on insugen 30/70 refill injection, glycomet gp2, ppg 0.3 mg and other drugs. I am also hypertensive on ramipril 5 mg and amlodipine 5 mg. My query is related to hypertension and not on diabetic problem. I am taking the above medicines for last 5 years on hypertension but my hypertension is more than 160/75. It shoots to 175 frequently. I began treadmill jogging exercise for 1 hour every day and then hypertension reduces to about 150/72. If I do not jog for 1 day, hypertension goes back to 160/170. I am consuming ramipril 5 mg + amlodipine 5 mg everyday, once before lunch. The hypertension is not at all reduced with these drugs but only by jogging. I am 60 years old and jogging for 1 hour is very strenuous, leading to knee pain frequently. Suggest replacement drugs for hypertension.

Mr. lybrate-user
best medicine to control blood pressure is exercise as you realize. As of now your blood pressure menu is having space to either increase dose or add one more drug. Here I will suggest to add one more drug chlorthalidone 12.5 mg.

Please continue amlodipine same 5 mg dose as your bp is just controlled. People with diabetes need strict control of bp as high bp and diabetes both can cause proteinuria (protein leak in urine). Infact, get urine albumin/creatinine ratio to check for proteinuria. Reduce salt intake and watch your weight.
Please call me if you have any further queries.
Thank you.

Hello lybrate-user. I understand your concern. I would suggest you to visit a doctor nearby and check your BP manually and let the doctor evaluate you and decide on a BP medicine. You will also need to get your blood workup and ECG done (its routine) sometime soon.
Hope this helps.

You should take second medicine at 3 pm instead of night.

Usually it should not be issues. However please ask her to stick to her regular medicines only. Do not give any antibiotics as it is not going to help.in case she is uncomfortable, please contact your doctor.

Olmax 20 tablet is unsafe to use during pregnancy as there is definite evidence of risk to the developing baby. U need to consult your gynecologist for further guidance.

Hello,
how long has she been on these medications? This is a high dose of 4 antihypertensive medication. I do not know why ecosprin gold was started but it is not a bp medicine. It is given after a heart attack or angioplasty. If she is taking these medicines for a long ti. E and having these numbness dizziness recently then it is unlikely due to these medicines. This could just be dehydration related due to summer or could be neuropathy or radiculopathy. For now continue the same medicines ...more
