Hi welcome to hcm I understand your query and concern. Metopure xl 25 is a beta blocker used to maintain heart rate and can also be used to control blood pressure.Telma is used as an Anti-hypertensive drug.Since your husband s blood pressure is on a low normal note,he can stop Telma but not Metpure.Ecosprin is used to prevent Coronary artery disease.Monitor his blood pressure and heart rate regularly.If blood pressure raises again to >130/80 mmhg,he should start taking Telma by consulting your doctor.Get an ECG,2 D Echo,lipid profile,hsCRP levels to predict the future risk of Coronary artery disease.Coronary angiogram with or without stenting will be the procedure of choice.Consult your cardiologist for expert management.
