Suggest Treatment For Headache And High Blood Pressure
Hi, My mother suddenly started feeling like her head was reeling badly this morning (room swaying) and when she went to the doctor her BP was 160/100. She is 61years old and she's been having indigestion all day. She was fine and in the evening her BP came down to 125/80 and now again she feels like her head is reeling. Please advice..

Hi There
I understand your concern for your mothers health, I would like to suggest you to keep a regular check on her Blood pressure if it is staying above 140/90 mmhg then I would like to start her on some low dose Antihypertensive medicine like AMLODIPINE once daily. But before that it's better you take her personally to a doctor so that she could be examined properly. I would also like to suggest to maintain a low salt diet for her if her BP is staying high.
I wish her good health
