I have been prescribed venlor-xr 37.5 and petril 20 beta. I have hypertension and at the time of prescribing these medicines both my pulse rate and bp were high but whenever I test my blood pressure myself, my pulse rate is always normal (74 being lowest and 94 being highest). Should I still take these medicines? I don't think my stress is high enough to consume meds. I had visited the psychiatrist for trouble concentrating, remember things and thinking properly.
