I've been on amlosafe at 5mg for about 4 months now, but my blood pressure is still hovering around 150100. Do you think I should be switching up my medication, or is there something else I should be trying?

Amlosafe is a brand name for Amlodipine. Since your blood pressure is still high despite taking Amlodipine 5mg for 4 months, you may need a change in medication. I recommend discussing with your doctor about switching to a different antihypertensive medication such as Losartan .

My dad's been dealing with high blood pressure, around 155 over 105, and his creatinine levels were a bit high too, at 1.8. He used to be on 5mg Minipress and 10mg Calcigard, but then he got prescribed 20mg Calcigard by mistake. Now, his blood pressure hasn't changed, but his creatinine shot up to 2.6. Could this be because of the change in the Calcigard dosage?

yes could be probable cause..

I had a cardiac arrest back in 2007 and they found 25% blockage after an angiography at the hospital in Mumbai. Lately, for the last 15 days or so, I've been feeling weak pretty regularly. Had a Doppler and 2D echo test done in Jodhpur recently, and the doctor told me my heart is working at only 20%. I'm really concerned about this. What should I do next?

Angioplasty is advised and cardiac opinion
