I've been taking Asomex 2.5mg for the past couple of days because my blood pressure's been high at 16090. Just recently, I've started sweating on my forehead, which is a bit unusual for me. Is this something I should be concerned about, or could it be a side effect of the meds?

Your blood pressure is 16090 and you are experiencing sweating on the forehead. You are currently taking Asomex 2.5mg. The sweating on the forehead could be a side effect of the medication. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly. In case the sweating continues or worsens, you should consult your doctor. As for your high blood pressure, you may need a higher dose of medication or an additional medication. I recommend discussing this with your doctor to adjust your treatment plan.

I'm a bit concerned because I had a PTCA procedure about 14 months ago. Now, my doctor is suggesting I stop taking Axcer 90 mg twice daily for 5 days and just stick with Ecosprin 75 mg once a day. This is supposed to be for a CT-guided biopsy because I've got multiple lymph nodes in my abdomen. Is this safe, and should I be worried about any risks with stopping Axcer?

yes.
