Cardiologist 's  Response
Hi,

You should measure your blood sugar continuously and record the results to show to your cardiologist.

If he/she will see that your blood pressure is under control, would decide if you can continue with inhibace plus Ta or not.

Aspirin is necessary to use all the time to avoid clot problems unless other blood concern will arise (such as bleeding).

For nortriptiline use, you should consult your neurologist if you can reduce the dose until to stop using it. However, a deep evaluation of your neurological and psychological profile is needed.

Ibuprofen you can take occasionally as used together with aspirin would increase the chances of bleeding.

Metoprolol is used to stabilize your cardiac rhythm. If your cardiologist would see that everything is ok with your heart rhythm, then, he/she is the only one who can decide what lower dose you can take until stop using it.

Doxazosin mesylate is used to treat both high blood pressure and benign prostatic hyperplasia.

As you are not mentioning your gender, I can assume that if you are a male, and have BPH problems, you can discuss with your cardiologist to change or stop using inhibace plus. If doxazosin is doing well for the health of your prostate, you should not stop using it.

If you are a female, then, you can discuss doxazosin use.

Sumatriptan succinate is used to help you ease your migraine problems, so it is necessary to use it.

This is all I can help.
