Is Nebicard Sm Effective In Controlling Both Bp And Asthma?

Hi, My name is Ganesh. I am 36 yrs old. I had been diagnosed with High BP and Cholostral on 17-09-2011. Since then I take Amplopress AT in the morning and SIM Card 10mg at night. As per the reports, everything is in the reference range. I also keep an eye on my BP which often comes as 110/80 or 100/70. However, I m suffering from Asthama now a days which is inherated. Ashtama never troubled me in the past, but now a days I really feel how is it to take a deep and satisfactory breath. I feel low on energy. Also got sugar test but its OK. I saw a doctor who said I should change Amlopress AT to Nebicard SM 10D as Amlopress AT would not let Asthma in control. He also recommended MONTEC LC, Doxiflo 400, PPZ-D. Serofloroacap rotohales (5 days). My height is 5ft,7inch....Weight:67.5kg. Eat 1650cl a days (egg white, brown bread, papaya, apple, chapati, 3lt water, biscuits, tea and milk. Please guide me if recommanded medicine right as I m feeling apprehensive about changing my BP medicine. Also, I want to cure asthama. Please guide.

Hi,

Nebicard SM is not safe while suffering from asthma. The blood pressure lowering medications Amlopress AT contains combination of Amlodipine and Atenolol whereas Nebicard SM contains amlodipine and nebivolol. Both Atenolol and Nebivolol belong to a group of drugs called beta adrenergic receptor blockers which if used in patients suffering from bronchial asthma or chronic airway disease can cause broncho-constriction (narrowing of the air ways) resulting in severe difficulty in breathing hence, Atenolol as well as Nebivolol must be avoided while suffering from asthma.

Consult your doctor for an alternate effective but a safer medicine for the control of high blood pressure without having any impact on asthma.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
