I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure readings over the past two days. They've been around 10476, 11076, 10583, and 10366. This started after I switched my medication from Metoprolol 50 mg to Tazloc CT 406.25 about 10 days ago. Are these readings considered low? Could you please tell me what would be considered low blood pressure?
The blood pressure readings you have provided are within the normal range. Low blood pressure is typically considered to be a systolic pressure less than 90 mmHg and a diastolic pressure less than 60 mmHg. Since your readings are consistently above these values, your blood pressure is not considered low. Regarding the medication change from metoprolol to tazloc CT-406.25, it seems to be working well for you as your blood pressure readings are within the normal range. Keep monitoring your blood pressure regularly and consult your doctor if you have any concerns

I'm really concerned about my father who's been dealing with Atrial Fibrillation for about 6 years now. A month ago, we talked to the doctor who recommended Eliquis 5mg, which he's been taking consistently. He's wondering if it's safe to stop taking the medication on his own, or if he should check with the doctor first. Could you offer some guidance on how to approach this situation?
It is important for your father to not stop taking Eliquis (Apixaban) 5mg suddenly without consulting the doctor. Abruptly stopping the medication can increase the risk of blood clots and stroke in patients with Atrial Fibrillation. Your father should consult with his doctor before making any changes to his medication regimen.
