I'm a bit concerned because my doctor has put me on Lipitas 10 (Rosuvastatin) to take at night, along with Sartel LN (Telmisartan 40) and Cilnidipine. I stumbled across some info that mentioned a serious drug interaction between Cilnidipine and Lipitas. Is that something I should be worried about?
Prolonged use of clinidipine 10 mg can cause hypotension ,that is a serious side effect. whereas telma causes sinus congestion,tachycardia,changes in vision, large ives and fainting etc.. Both telma and clinidepine are recommended for the control of BP.,You can continue taking the medications..

I'm a bit concerned because I've been managing my blood pressure and diabetes for a while. I used to take lobet 100mg and alphadopa 500mg twice a day for a month, but I stopped the BP meds two months ago because I was feeling dizzy and had blurred vision. My BP readings were fine after that, but lately, I've been getting mild headaches, and today my BP was 160100. I've been advised to see a doctor. I'm worried about whether starting BP medication again after the consultation might cause any issues. Could you please give me some guidance on this?
It is important to manage your blood pressure to prevent complications. Since you have a history of experiencing giddiness and blurred vision with your previous medication, it is crucial to consult your doctor before starting any new medication. Your doctor may prescribe a different class of antihypertensive medication such as Amlodipine 5mg once daily or Losartan 50mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure without causing the same side effects. Regular monitoring and follow-up with your doctor are essential to ensure the effectiveness and safety of the new medication.
