Question

I'm a 19-year-old guy dealing with high blood pressure issues. My doctor suggested I take Bengreat 4 tablets, and I'm honestly a bit worried about my health. I'm also obese, weighing 105 kg, and I'm unsure if I should start taking these tablets. Could you give me some advice on whether it's safe or if there's anything else I should consider?

Bengreat 4 is a commonly prescribed medication for high blood pressure. It contains a combination of Amlodipine 5mg and Telmisartan 40mg. It is important to follow your doctor's advice and take the medication as prescribed. The usual dosage for Bengreat 4 is 1 tablet once daily. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly while taking this medication. Additionally, since you mentioned being obese, it is also important to work on lifestyle modifications such as a healthy diet and regular exercise to help manage your blood pressure.
