I'm 50 years old and taking nebi 2.5 for last 9 years. My BP is always around 130/85 same times little up and down. Please advise that if I continue or change the medicine. Anuj

Ans: This is perfect range
Monitor your BP 24 hrs through ambulatory check up test
The technician will tie the cuff and a chip as recorder which records your BP through out the day at random times
24 hrs recording is evaluated after they give the report
Please show that to your Physician who put you on this medication and see if there is a need to change the dose or medivine

Since its been 5 years, it is not advisable to change the medicines without a proper diagnosis. At the same time, I strongly advise you to meet an Ayurvedic doctor and take a proper treatment plan to slowly reduce dependency on medicines.

Sir, I am 63 yrs. Last year I suffered from BP 170/110. I went to a Physician and as per his advice I am taking the tablets Nicardia 10mg 1 tablet alongwith Telista 20mg 1 tablet @ morning 9am and Nicardia 10mg 1 tablet at night 9pm. Now for the past three months my BP controlled 120/70 (OR) sometimes 110/70. Can I continue the same or to reduce the dose.

Ans: If the BP recorded multiple times is remaining a bit low, it maybe possible to reduce the dose. However, you should see the physician, have the BP checked in the clinic, and discuss the new dosages.
