I am 54 years now. since last 5 years my bp is 100/135. I am taking telmisartan & amlodipine combination tablet. should i change medicine or it is ok.

Ans: Hi,
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.

I am73 and some times the BP is 145/70, but otherwise 135/72. I am taking 1/2 tablet of Telmikind AMH for last 10 years

Ans: Since you have been on the medicine, hope you are also following a healthy routine with a proper diet and light walks and sleep. You can also try meditation, it helps the mind to relax and will help in regulating the BP as well. Start with 5-10 minutes and gradually increase, keep checking your BP to regulate your medicines (as per doctors' advise).

I am 65. My BP hovering around 140 - 150 / 78 - 85. I take Telma- Beta 25 Tablet in the morning after breakfast & 1 tablet Cilakar 20 at night as prescribed and advised by my physician for the last 3years. Any suggestion please. I have no other complication.

Ans: You might need to either increase the dose of Telma Beta to twice daily or add another drug called a diuretic. Ideally your BP needs to be consisitently below 140. Even if you do not have any complication now it is important to keep the BP under control to prevent long term complications (Strokes, kidney disease, heart attack, etc)

I am 56 years of age. Since last two years I have regularly taking one tablet of Telmasartan 40, after being advised by the Doctor. However still my BP remains in the region of 160/100 to 150/90. Do I need to change the medicine and for that matter, consult a doctor.

Ans: Yes, you definitely another medicine added to Telmisarten. If it is still not controlled, the dose of Telmisarten could be doubled and other medicine could continue in half strength.
It has been found that combination medicines in less than full strength are better than higher dose of single medicine.
