Why does my doctor want to change my BP medication from Olmesar H 20 to T Nabicar 5Mg? My BP seems under control and my pulse rate is usually between 90-100, though it goes from 100 to 130 during the TMT. My triglycerides are at 201 but all other cholesterol and kidney tests came back normal. They've also suggested I start taking Atorva 10Mg. Can you help me understand if switching to these new meds is the right move?

Based on your doctor's recommendation, it would be advisable to switch from Olmesar H 20 to T Nabicar 5mg for better management of your blood pressure. Additionally, starting Atorva 10mg can help in lowering your triglyceride levels. It seems like a reasonable adjustment to your medication regimen to further improve your cardiovascular health.

I'm really struggling with these intense headaches since I've been taking telmisartan 40mg with hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg every day. Even though my blood pressure is normal around 12879, the headaches won't go away, and they're really affecting my daily life. I'm also on propranolol 40mg and flunarizine 12.5mg for my cervical spine issues, but the pain is still so bad. Is there any alternative to telmisartan that won't cause these headaches, or maybe any tips on how to avoid these side effects? I'm 52 and really need some advice on how to manage this.
