Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am having hypertension since Oct 2010. I am currently taking Eritel H and Starpress XL 25 in the morning and Eritel 40 in the evening. I still feel like having heavy head most of the times. I also find it difficult to get sleep at night and end up taking Alprax .25 to get sleep. I am 29 years old male. Please suggest.
the medicines that you are taking are typical for the control of blood pressure. neither is a probable source of sleep disturbance but either may give you the head related side effect. Alprazolam is not a good medicine to take often for sleep. It is habit forming and there are much better alternatives. These are all points of discussion that you should have with your physician.
