Question

I'm really worried because my wife's blood pressure is really low, and she's in a critical condition right now. Can you suggest some medicine that I can give her to help stabilize it? Any advice would be appreciated.

Question

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been dealing with hypertension for the past 8 years, and now she's caught a cold and has a cough. The doctor recommended she take Azithromycin 500 for five days. My question is, is it okay for her to mix this antibiotic with her blood pressure meds? I'm not sure if there's any interaction or something that we should be concerned about.

Question

I've had angioplasty done and have a stent implanted. My doctor recommended some drugs from companies like Sun Pharma, MacLeod, and Lupin, but they're a bit pricey for me. Are there other reputable brands that make equivalent quality medications for Rozavel 2mg, Prax A 75mg, and Voglimac GM 2mg at a lower cost? Also, can I ask the pharmacy for generic versions of cholesterol-lowering drugs if I have a prescription for the more expensive branded ones? Are generics reliable when it comes to quality assurance and control?
