General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Stamlo Beta contains two drugs for high blood pressure. Patients may take 1 or 2 tablets a day for high blood pressure.

Subconjunctival hemorrhage may happen from high blood pressure but most of the time it is not clear why it happens.
On the other hand, it is not recommended to increase the dose of the blood pressure medications without monitoring of the blood pressure values for a time. For instance, one single higher value of blood pressure than the norm does not justify the increase in blood pressure medications.

So, I would advise to better monitor the blood pressure in the next 2 weeks and plug the information (the date, the time you did the measurement and the value of the blood pressure), and then discuss it with your doctor to determine if changes in medications are needed.
The subconjunctival hemorrhage will spontaneously resolve in a couple of weeks.

I hope this answers your query. I remain at your disposal in case further medical assistance is needed.

Regards,
Dr. Antoneta Zotaj
