Question 1

I'm a bit worried because I've developed a fever of 101F after taking the COVID vaccine, and I'm currently taking Dolo 650 for it. I have a history of high blood pressure and usually take Amodep in the morning and Telmikind 40 at night. I also use the Dulion Rotacap for my asthma. Is it safe for me to take my night dose of Telmikind 40 after Ive already taken the Dolo 650? Are there any interactions I should be concerned about? Also, my body is aching and my pulse rate is between 90 to 110. Should I be concerned about any of these symptoms?

Accepted Answer

After taking the COVID vaccine, you can take your prescribed medications, including Telmikind 40, as directed by your doctor; Dolo 650 (Paracetamol) and Telmikind 40 (Telmisartan) can be taken together, but ensure a 2-3 hour gap to minimize potential interactions; monitor your blood pressure, pulse rate, and body temperature, and consult your doctor if you experience any concerns, such as a pulse rate exceeding 110 or severe body aches.

Question 2

I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure being 14090. Is that considered high? I've just turned 30, weigh 72 kg, and Im already taking rozavel 10 for dyslipidemia. Should I get on some medication for this, or could lifestyle changes do the trick? I do exercise daily for 20 minutes and eat less outside food and salt. What do you think?

Accepted Answer

take 3 readings after food for 3 days if it is still persisitant consult your doctor

Question 3

I'm getting these weird feelings where it seems like my heart is struggling to beat at times. Sometimes, out of nowhere, I get these intense palpitations that eventually settle down, but it's really unsettling. Another thing I've noticed is that just when I'm about to burp, the palpitations get much stronger and faster, which honestly freaks me out a bit. Any idea what might be happening?

Accepted Answer

These symptoms could be related to acid reflux causing irritation of the esophagus, which in turn can trigger palpitations. I recommend trying over-the-counter antacids like Tums (500mg) or Maalox (5ml) to help with the acid reflux. Additionally, you can try avoiding trigger foods like spicy or fatty foods, caffeine, and alcohol. If the symptoms persist, it's important to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
