What could it mean if Sorbitrate 5 tastes really bitter when you keep it under your tongue? My relative is dealing with hypertension and I'm a bit worried.
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
When sorbitrate 5 feels really bitter when you keep it under your tongue, it could be due to the medication coming into contact with taste buds. This is a common side effect of sublingual medications. To reduce the bitter taste, you can try drinking a small amount of water before taking the medication. Additionally, ensure that the medication is placed directly under the tongue and allowed to dissolve completely. If the bitterness persists or if there are any other concerning symptoms, please consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I've been taking Inapure 2.5 twice a day for a couple of weeks, and I've noticed my pulse rate drops to around 55-60 when I'm resting at night. Is it okay if I switch to taking Inapure 2.5 only in the mornings?
It is not recommended to change your medication regimen without consulting your doctor first. Inapure 2.5 is a brand name for the drug Indapamide, which is a diuretic used to treat high blood pressure. Changing the timing of your medication can affect its effectiveness in controlling your blood pressure throughout the day.
