I'm having some issues with my medication. I was prescribed Dytor 5 tablets because I have MVP and moderate MR, but every time I take them, I start feeling really drowsy, my hands turn reddish, and my heart starts pounding. Initially, my doctor advised one tablet daily, but when I mentioned these symptoms, he suggested increasing the dosage to 12 tablets a day. However, Im still feeling dizzy all the time. Is this normal, or should I be concerned? What should I do?

Its better to switch to another tablet but better to rule out further why you are getting such symptoms and give right treatment

I'm wondering if a blood pressure reading of 10575 is considered low. What precautions should I be taking, and are there any medicines I need? I don't have any other health issues, so I'm curious about what might be the best steps for me to stay healthy.

A blood pressure of 10575 mmHg is within the normal range and generally not considered low. However, if you're feeling lightheaded or dizzy, it's a good idea to stay hydrated, eat regular meals, and avoid sudden position changes. No specific medication is needed if you're feeling fine otherwise.
