Can These Drugs Interact Adversely?
I am 43 year old, 5'6", 82 kg wt. Indian. I was diagnosed with hypertension 7 years back. I am taking Tozaar 25 and Tonact Tg for the last 3 years (as my TG level was also high). Though my TG level is normal now, I am continuing this medicine. Recently I have also got some knee pain and the doctor has given Hilin-GM, Ketorol and Belosix.My questions are:
1) Can all these drugs interact and create any adverse reaction?
2) Can I stop Tonact TG and Tozaar 25 as my BP and TG level are normal?
3) Can Hilin_GM to be continues for long or can be stopped after 10 /15 days?

Hi hope you are doing good. Let me answers your questions.
1) Ketorol(ketorolac) can interact with your anti hypertensive medications, so do not take this beyond prescribed duration. Constant monitoring of blood pressure is a must. Apart from this no major drug interactions present with other drugs.
2) No.You should NEVER stop anti hypertensive and antihyperlipidemic drugs just because you have normal readings now. You have normal values because of the medications. If you stop it, then blood pressure and lipid values will increase and can lead to dangerous consequences.
3) Hilin-GM (Diacerin + glucosamine) can be taken beyond 10-15 days. But after 3 months, the improvement in symptoms must be measured and then decision should be taken about continuing.
Belosix (febuxostat) must be taken for long period time. It is used to lower Uric acid levels in blood. Periodic measurements of uric acid levels is required for dose adjustments.
Hope the above information answers all your queries.
