Please advise a medicine with which control my BP not reduce the pulse rate.

Question by Madhu - Mar 20, 2023Hindi

Health

Hi Doctor I am Madhu, from Hyderabad, I am have BP 180/120, Since 2 years, Generally I use only Aten 25 only, and every time I check my BP it is above 160/110 only pulse rate is 55-65, I stopped Aten 25 and started Telma 40 for 1 week and now my BP is 170/100 and pulse rate is above 100. I took my ECG it shows , Left atrial enlargement, left ventricular hypertrophy. Can you give me good suggestion to control my self with BP and pulse. Sugar is Normal, Only Headack some times and daily legs pain

Ans: Hi Madhu, I am not a doctor but a consultant for Naturopathy & Yog Wellness techniques.
I will recommend you to not to stop the prescribed medications and go for regular check-ups. Also keep a tab on your BP and pulse rate regularly or whenever you feel uneasy.
Since I do not know your age, body weight etc., I suggest a few activities to keep a check on your weight and general health. Start with casual walks 15-20 minutes a day (at least 2 hrs after meals), practice deep breathing, moderately loud Om chanting and anulom vilom pranayams for 10-15 mins and gradually increase.
Practice Apana mudra while doing pranayams and chanting.
Also, you need a strongly regulated diet, if your doctor has not prescribed yet, I suggest you visit a dietician/ naturopath at the earliest.

Health

My age is 49, height 6.1'' and weight 84 kg. My BP show 132- 112. I take daily telmisartan -40 mg for last 2 years. what should l do control BP to normal. Family doctor suggested minimise the salt and take cilndidipine 10 mg daily. Kindly suggest

Ans: I am not clear what is 132-112 mean. Are these systolic BP readings or one is systolic (upper one) and other diastolic (lower BP). If 112 is systolic BP, then it is okay.
If diastolic, then you need to consult physician to modify the medicines.
You seems to be doing okay. However, I can provide better advice if I have a detailed blood and vitals report.

Hello sir, I want a health insurance which covers my wife's delivery cost, and if any complications occurred or my baby is pre delivered in 7 months, insurance to cover the baby NICU fees which may go upto 30 Lakhs for 3 months.

Ans: Hello;

Many health insurance companies offer coverage of maternity expenses in their plans, however you need to look out for:

1. Wating period ranging from 1 to 2 years. Maybe higher if spouse has some previous ailments like hypertension, diabetes etc and also if spouse age is higher.

Some companies may warrant a prior health check up before underwriting.

2. Sub-limits on coverage. For eg some companies offer limited neo-natal coverage.

3. List of network hospitals for cashless claim. Also need to avoid blacklisted hospitals.

4. Do your own study and also seek help from an insurance advisor.

Apart from private insurers do take a look at the offerings by Govt general insurance companies too.

Best wishes;
