Using Prazopress XL,Telma CT 80 For BP, Having Swelling In Leg Due To Water Retention. Whether I Am In Right Medication?

I am using Prazopress XL 2.5 ( one in morning and one in evening) and Telma CT 80 ( one in morning) for my BP which was at 90-150 inplace of Telma AM. I was using Telma Am for more than a year but there was swelling in my leg which was due to water retention. Pl. confirm whether i am right medication.

Welcome to Health Care Magic

Yes
The AM component causes swelling in some people – from dilatation of blood vessel
The CT component promotes salt excretion and avoids this problem
Prazoin is a third drug acting by different mechanism
