I'm really worried because I was initially diagnosed with high blood pressure at 14690 due to stress and overworking, but it dropped to 14090 the next day. My doctor put me on Amfirst AT, and after taking it for a week, my blood pressure became really low at 11070. I don't usually have issues with blood pressure, and I think the medication made it too low. What should I do now?

It seems like the medication Amfirst AT, which contains Amlodipine and Losartan, has lowered your blood pressure too much. You should stop taking the medication and consult your doctor immediately. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider for further guidance on managing your blood pressure.

I'm a 37-year-old male who has been taking Asomex 2.5 mg for my high blood pressure, but I'm out of it now since I'm in Qatar and can't find it here. A doctor here prescribed me Norvasc 5 mg instead. I'm a bit worried and wanted to ask if it's safe for me to switch to this medication. Can you give me some advice?

Yes, Norvasc 5 MG is safe for you to take as a substitute for Asomex 2.5 mg. Both medications contain the same active ingredient, Amlodipine, which is used to treat high blood pressure. The recommended dosage of Norvasc 5 MG for hypertension is usually 5-10 mg once daily. Please follow your doctor's instructions regarding the dosage and administration of Norvasc 5 MG for your high blood pressure.

I've been dealing with chest pain for the past one and a half months. I've had a chest X-ray, ECG, Echo, and TMT done, and all the reports came back normal. I even went to a cardiologist, and he said it's not related to my heart. The pain started about a week after I found out I have high BP. I'm currently taking Prolomet AM, Pantocid IT, Drise 60k, and Rozavel. The pain feels like muscle pain on the upper side of my chest, on both sides. Sometimes, it feels like a pinch all over my chest. It also extends to my underarms and neck occasionally, and I feel tightness, especially on the upper right side of my chest. I sometimes have itching in my chest and sensations below my chin and jawline. What's strange is that I feel a bit better after some physical activity, like exercising or walking. Could you help me figure out what's going on? What should I do next?
