HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is cerebral stroke then your father would be having some headache for some time and no need to worry about this the tight control of blood glucose level is very important and the controlling of blood pressure otherwise keep continue the medicine as it is for the headache he may be given "Tab Acetaminophen only when needed, hope this information helps you, take good care of your father, have nice day.
