I'm really concerned about my mom's health. She's 58 and has been dealing with high blood pressure for a while now and taking Tamson 40 for the past 8 years. In addition to that, for the last 3 years, she's been on Atorfit CV 10 for some heart problems. The doctor recommended she stay on Atorfit CV 10 for life, but I'm worried. Is taking this medicine for life safe for her? Shes still active and does all our housework daily. Would love some guidance on this!
