I'm currently taking medication for my blood pressure, but my last reading was 14583. Should I think about adjusting my dose, or is this level considered controlled? Can you provide some guidance on what I should do?

A blood pressure reading of 14583 is slightly elevated. It is important to consult with your doctor before making any changes to your medication dosage. However, if your doctor agrees, you may need to increase the dose of your current medication or add an additional medication to better control your blood pressure. It is important to follow your doctor's guidance on medication adjustments.

I've been taking Tazloc 40 mg and Nebicard 2.5 mg every day, but I've started having a lot of congestion and trouble with my breathing. I decided to stop them, and now the side effects are gone. Between these two medications, which one could be causing these issues?

Out of Tazloc 40 mg and Nebicard 2.5 mg, the medication more likely to cause congestion and breathing issues is Nebicard 2.5 mg. Nebicard is a brand name for Nebivolol, which is a beta-blocker commonly associated with side effects such as bronchospasm and worsening of respiratory conditions in some individuals. It is good that you have stopped the medications and the side effects have resolved.
