View allSo my mom started taking Razel CV20 in July 2017 after her doctor switched her from Ecosprin. She's diabetic, but her sugar levels have been under control for a few years. The thing is, she's been complaining that sometimes her hands and feet get cold, and she feels weak, although she usually feels better after about 12 days of rest. These symptoms weren't there when she was on Ecosprin. There's no other health issue, and all her tests are normal. But seeing that two of her older brothers passed away from sudden strokes in their mid-60s, I'm worried. Could these symptoms be hiding something serious? Is it safe for her to continue taking Razel CV? She had high blood pressure in the past but it's been normal for the last 4-5 years. With a family history of high blood pressure, diabetes, and strokes, should we be concerned?
yes continue tab razel cv , also avoid butter,ghee, meat etc,, Salt restricted diet is advised to the patien.

I'm taking Betacap TR 40 in the morning, but my BP is still high and can't be controlled. I've been feeling dizzy for a few days, and yesterday I had a root canal done. Today, my blood pressure is 150110, and I'm not sure what's going on. Can you help me figure out what to do next?
I can't know the exact reason for your high blood pressure without a proper examination, but considering your symptoms and recent dental procedure, it is possible that the pain and stress from the root canal treatment may have contributed to the elevated blood pressure. I would recommend you to continue taking Betacap TR 40 as prescribed, and also consider adding an additional medication like Telma 40 (Telmisartan) once daily to help control your blood pressure. Additionally, try to manage your stress levels, get an adequate amount of rest, and follow a healthy diet low in salt and saturated fats. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
