View allI'm a bit anxious right now. I usually take my Nubeta 2.5 at around 11am every day, but I got confused and took it again at midnight thinking it was my multivitamin. My blood pressure was around 14090 before using Nubeta. I'm worried about what kind of side effects I might experience because of this. Can you help me understand what to expect and if I should do anything specific?
This medication is a beta-blocker used to treat high blood pressure. Taking an extra dose may lead to a drop in blood pressure, causing symptoms such as dizziness, lightheadedness, fatigue, and a slow heart rate. Since your blood pressure was 14090 before starting Nubeta, it is important to monitor your blood pressure closely for the next few hours. If you experience any concerning symptoms or if your blood pressure drops significantly, please seek medical attention.

I've been monitoring my blood pressure and it's usually around 13090 or 13787, which I'm not sure if that's high or normal. Do I need to be on any medication for this? At home, it's typically 13086, but at work, I've noticed it goes up to 14085 or sometimes even 14080. How can I keep my blood pressure at a healthy level? Should I be worried about these readings or is this something normal? Could you give me some advice on this?
it is normal

I'm a 30-year-old male and I've been having some trouble with my BP medication. About a year ago, my blood pressure spiked to 175120 and my doctor prescribed Telma 40 along with another medicine for a week. Over time, I stopped taking Telma 40 and hadn't used it for the last 3 months. Recently, I switched to Prolomet XL 25, but it doesn't seem to suit me. What should I do?
It seems like you are experiencing some difficulties with Prolomet XL 25. Since Telma 40 worked well for you in managing your blood pressure, I would recommend you to consult your doctor for a prescription of Telma 40 again. Additionally, you can also consider adding a diuretic like Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg to your current medication regimen to help control your blood pressure more effectively. Remember to follow your doctor's advice regarding the dosage and frequency of these medications.
