Should I Continue Taking Stamlo, Lorvas And Stamlo Beta For High BP?

I had high BP and was taking taking Stamlo, Lorvas and Stamlo Beta alongwith Chlosterol reducing tabs like Lipicard and Simlo 10. For the last 18 months I have been taking only one Eslo 2.5 tab in the morning hours as my BP had stabilised to about 120/80. However, for the last 10/12 days my body seems to be paining, pressure has increased to 160/100 and my legs feel heavy. I have resorted to the earlier dose. Pls advise.

DEAR USER
THANKS FOR CONSULTING AT HCM

I UNDERSTAND YOUR CONCERN..

AS PER YOUR HISTORY YOU WERE ON A 3 DRUG THERAPY FOR HYPERTENSION..
AND IT WAS THE EFFECT OF THESE DRUGS THAT YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE WAS UNDER CONTROL

SUDDEN WITHDRAWL OF THESE DRUGS AND USE OF ONLY LOW DOSE ESLO HAS CAUSED THE RISE IN BLOOD PRESSURE AGAIN

I ADVISE YOU TO CONSULT YOUR CARDIOLOGIST BEFORE MODIFICATION OF ANY DRUG REGIMEN.. TILL THEN YOU CAN CONTINUE WITH THE ROUTINE REGIMEN YOU WERE ON..

HOPE I HAVE ANSWERED YOUR QUESTION.. YOU CAN MESSAGE ME FOR ANY FURTHER CONCERNS
