I'm currently on Telpres MT 50mg for my blood pressure, and I'm wondering if it's alright to take it after dinner or just before bed. Does the timing affect how well the medication works? I'm a bit concerned about whether taking it at night might cause any issues or side effects while I'm sleeping. What do you think would be the best time to take it?

It is recommended to take Telpres MT 50mg once daily in the morning, preferably at the same time each day. This helps to maintain a consistent level of the medication in your body and optimize its effectiveness in controlling blood pressure.

Question

I had a peg of whiskey around 7 PM after not drinking for a while, and now I'm due to take my metocard xl 25. I'm a bit concerned about whether it's safe to take it right now. Can you advise on this?

I'm having some discomfort in my chest when I masturbate, especially in the middle and left side. It doesn't hurt a lot, just a little, but it's noticeable. At first, I thought it might be because I was overweight, so I lost some weight and now I'm down to 67 kg, but the pain is still there. I even tried stopping for a month, thinking it was because I was doing it too often, like 3-4 times a week, but the pain came back when I started again. I'm a bit embarrassed to talk to my friends or family about this, but is there something else that could be causing it?
