Does Prolomet Cause Difficulty And Heaviness While Breathing?
I am 64 year old male. Since last 3 months I am taking Prolomet AM 50 and Losatran 50 in the morning for controlling B.P. My BP reads around 110/ 70 in the morning as well as at noon. I have some difficulty in breathing and little heavy while taking a deep breath. Am I on the right medication?

Hello
After going through the medical details provided by you i would like to tell you that your BP control is quite good.
The antihypertensives which you are taking are not know to cause any sort of breathing difficulty. Amlodipine however can cause ankle edema in some patients but no breathing difficulty.
Yes you are on correct medications and if breathing problem is bothering you then i would like to suggest you to get one Chest xray done to rule out any respiratory infection.
Kind Regards
