Suggest Remedy For Hypertension
Dear Doctor,
I'm from Nepal, last 4 month; I'm suffering from hypertension and taking Amlobet 5 mg and Lotan H 50 mg as per suggestion by doctor. Continue I'm checking my blood pressure day by day as well as same doctor now (from 3 month ago) my blood pressure is 120/80 regular. Recently 1 week ago (30 May, 2011) I had checked my whole body like: Diabetes, Liver Function Test (SGPT), Blood Sugar, Echo, Kidney Function Test (Blood Urea, Serum Creatinine, Serum Uric Acid, Urine R/M/E) tests these all are normal. My age is 38 years, and my weight is 68 Kg. I'm regularly walking 4 km at morning from 2 years ago. Also I'm very careful to take my regular meals. Now I need to stop medicine one by one (first Lotan H 50 mg and after some weeks Amlobet 5 mg) is this my right decision? pls suggestion.

Hi,
Bp medication has to be stopped gradually by reducing the dose. They can not be stopped all of sudden. Don't stop it yourself. Keep a record of bp & let the doctor decide about the medications.
