Dear friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
Good that your pressure is controlled well
Prolomet is Metoprolol – a beta blocker.
It should not be stopped suddenly – sudden withdrawal may cause rebound – both the pressure and heart rate may shoot up… after a day or two
You should ensure continuous supply…
Ramister is Ramipril – an ACEI (Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitor).
Omitting for a day or two has no significant problem…
Yes, they can be taken in the night.,, / any time when you remember…
An alarm in your hand phone is a good way to remind... most of my patients are doing it
Good luck
Take care
Wishing all well
God bless
