View allI'm really worried about my dad's blood pressure. It's just not going down, even though he's taking Olmesar H 40 in the morning and Prolomate XL 50 at night. I came across something called Metocard AM and was wondering if it might be better for him than Prolomate XL 50. Also, do you think Prolomate XL 50 could lead to other health issues?
Metocard AM is a combination medication containing Metoprolol and Amlodipine, which can be effective in managing high blood pressure. In comparison to Prolomate XL 50, Metocard AM may be a better option for some individuals, but it ultimately depends on your dad's specific health condition and response to the medications. Prolomate XL 50 (Metoprolol) is generally well-tolerated, but like any medication, it can have side effects. While it is unlikely to cause "disease problems," common side effects of Metoprolol can include tiredness, dizziness, and slow heart rate. It is important to monitor for any unusual symptoms and consult with your healthcare provider if any concerns arise. It is recommended to discuss with your dad's healthcare provider or a pharmacist about the potential benefits and risks of switching to Metocard AM and to ensure the most appropriate treatment for his blood pressure management.

I'm checking my husband's pulse with the oximeter while he's sitting, and it's showing between 55 and 64. He's 34, has no health problems, but is currently COVID positive. Is this a normal reading? Would love some insight!
A pulse rate of 55 to 64 beats per minute while sitting can be considered normal for some individuals, especially those who are physically fit. However, in the context of being COVID positive, it is important to monitor his pulse rate closely as it can be affected by the infection. If he experiences any symptoms like dizziness, shortness of breath, or chest pain along with the low pulse rate, it is advisable to seek medical attention. As of now, continue monitoring his pulse rate and oxygen saturation levels regularly.
