Question

I'm really worried because her blood pressure is staying high despite taking several medications. We've done all the tests, and everything seems fine except her LDL is a little high. What could be causing this, and what else can we do to help get her blood pressure under control?

High blood pressure that is not well controlled despite taking multiple medications can be challenging. In this case, adding a medication such as Amlodipine (5mg) can help lower blood pressure effectively. Additionally, for high LDL cholesterol, Atorvastatin (20mg) can be prescribed to help lower LDL levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. It is important to follow up with regular blood pressure and cholesterol monitoring to adjust the treatment as needed.
