I've been to the neurologist again for my neck pain and dizziness, and he found my blood pressure at 15090 with a pulse of 130. After asking some questions, he prescribed me Gaba300, Prolol 40, and Nexito Plus, advising me to take them for a month. Is it okay to use these medications for a second time? He mentioned everything is normal and to stay happy, but I'm not sure what to do next. Could you guide me on whether I should consult a different doctor or if there's anything else I should consider?
The medications prescribed to you by your neurologist are appropriate for managing your symptoms. Gaba300 (Gabapentin) can help relieve nerve pain and may also help with dizziness. The usual dosage is 300mg to 600mg three times a day. Prolol 40 (Propranolol) is a beta-blocker that can help lower blood pressure and heart rate. The usual dosage is 40mg to 80mg once a day. Nexito Plus is a combination medication containing Escitalopram and Clonazepam. It is used to treat anxiety and depression. The usual dosage is one tablet daily. It's important to follow your doctor's instructions and take the medications as prescribed. Additionally, make sure to monitor your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your neurologist as scheduled. If you experience any concerning symptoms or side effects, contact your doctor.
