Does Taking Atacand Help Control BP?
I am 48 and I have had high bp. I used to read 140 by 95 earlier. But I started taking ayurvedic medicines but still continued taking atacand but now my bp readings are 110 by 76. Please let me know if I should take Atacand and if this rate is normal or not.Please advice. Thank you

Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic
Your blood pressure readings are very good.
It is quite likely that the medication and the other medicines may be responsible for your blood pressure readings.
The blood pressure may increase with discontinuation of therapy.
You should not alter any medications without first speaking to your doctor.
I hope this helps
