Suggest Treatment For Acidity And Pain In Upper Stomach
hello doctor , I m 46 year old lady , just now I have gone through severe acidity and pain near upper stomach , and first time B.P gone upto 150-100 , I want to ask whether I should continue the B.P. TABLET losar H (50mg) or it also increase my acidity, and can I take losar H on alternate day
Hello You are taking losartan H ( hydrochlorothiazide )for high blood pressure . You are also having hyper acidity and pain in stomach. Since losartanH causes dizziness but also causes nausea , vomiting ( hydrocholothizide is responsible for nausea and vomiting). If your blood pressure is within normal range on alternate use of losartan then you can do this . But control of blood pressure is important in your case. So take pantoprazole -d 2-3 hours before or after your losartan tablet . If you will take concomitantly then losartan will require in higher doses . Also , take some antacid for your stomach pain. Avoid greasy , fried , spicy foods as this will help in hyper acidity. Still no relief then consult your physician and get his opinion.
