My dad's been on Gardenal for nearly 10 years now, and since he's been taking it regularly, he hasn't had any seizures for a long time. A couple of days ago, he had an angiogram and they found out he has triple valve disease. We've been told to figure out whether he should keep taking Gardenal or if it's okay to stop. Any advice or thoughts on this would be really helpful?

Which blood pressure medication is best for my high BP and angina pain? I'm kind of stuck because one doctor recommended Metoprolol and another suggested Amlodipine. I really want something that works well but doesn't have a lot of side effects. Can you help me figure out which one might be better?
For high blood pressure and angina pain, it is important to follow the advice of your healthcare providers. Both Metoprolol and Amlodipine are commonly used medications for these conditions. Metoprolol is a beta-blocker that helps lower blood pressure and reduce the workload on the heart, while Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that helps relax blood vessels. For proper relief and minimal side effects, a combination of both medications may be beneficial. You can consider taking Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) along with Amlodipine (brand name: Norvasc). The typical dosage for Metoprolol is 25-100 mg once or twice daily, and for Amlodipine, it is 5-10 mg once daily. Please consult with your healthcare provider to discuss the best treatment plan for your specific condition.
