I have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and taking regular meds (Lamotrigine, fluoxetine, olanzapine and clonazepam) since last 4 years. I am also having hypertension from quite some time but not taking any meds for that. Hypertension is worsening my condition. Please suggest some medicine for hypertension to be taken along with bipolar medicine and it's frequency/timing. Thanks in anticipation.

You need and should take BP medicines. You should get aECG and serum lipid profile done. Also check yourself for diabetes. With these reports you see a physician who will give medicine for High BP. You also show your report to the doctor who is treating your bipolar disorder. He may change your medications if he or she feels so. Finally you should restrict your salt intake and do regular exercise and meditation.
