Avatar f tn 5 mg and Altace 10 mg.) 5 hours before having an Endoscopy? Would the pressure go to low with the anesthesia or go to high without the hypertension medications?
Avatar m tn After a sleepless night, the nurse told me (by phone) that this was Atrial Tachycardia, that the slow pulse was not a total indication of what was going on with my heart.and to increase my dose of beta blocker from 12 to 25 mg. This made me extremely lightheaded so I went back to my prior dose. While I understand that this is probably a temporary side effect of the ablation and medication is this the case. I am taking Altace, Atenolol and Coumadin. Could this be Bradycardia?
Avatar m tn Three to eight hours after morning dose of coreg my pulse remains within 70-75 bpm. After evening dose until morning I presume it should be below 70 bpm(though I have never measured).
Avatar f tn Why is my systolic blood pressure still high when I am taking Altace. My diastolic blood pressure is normal when I take Altace. Why the difference. Could I have angina since I have had pain in my chest around the heart area and in the middle of the chest. Also, could I have arterialschlorsis from the high systolic blood pressure? This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/252636'>high systolic normal diastolic blood pressure?</a>.
Avatar n tn For some it will have the opposite effect. Also the max dose is 10mg so I would be really careful with that.
21064 tn?1309308733 What about Zocor? That is a very well known cholesterol medication. I take: 20mg of Zocor to lower cholesterol - no side effects - lowers it to normal levels Clonodine patch #2 - for high BP - no side effects - BP below 120/80 most of the time 40mg of Lasix - for high BP - no side effects except for intense urination for a short time after I take the Lasix. Have been taking the above for over 4 1/2 yrs with no side effects.

Avatar m tn Never had a heart attack. The Cardio put me on Metoprolol ( 50mg); Altace 2.5 mg and baby aspirin in addition to Lipitor 20mg. Sep. 2009 he took me off the Metoprolol and increased the Altace to 10 mg. My Blood potassium level at the time was perfectly normal at 3.6; after the spike in the ace-inhibitor my potassium level has risen in two months to 5.6, which I believe is an unsafe level. My family doctor has now asked me to go back to the 2.5 mg dosage and get re-tested after two weeks.
1464004 tn?1384135733 Hi folks! As many of you know I am on metoprolol tartrate 25 MGs b.i.d. for my PSVT. Even though I'm on the lowest dose I do get quite a bit of side effects as far as being overtired and dragging. My cardiologist now has started me on verapamil because my BP has been running high. I'm just afraid this is going to make me even more tired and dragging. Is anybody on this combo and if so how have the side effects been?
Avatar f tn Have you checked in with your eye MD?
Avatar f tn no, i am not at max dose. i believe max dose is either 60 or 80mg.
Avatar f tn I take Toprol XL 200 mgs. and Altace 20mgs. and have for many years however recently I have experienced an increase in blood pressure. I have lost some weight and continue to diet as well as exercise. My doctor has tried two calcium channel blockers with the results that I become very ill and unable to continue these medications. Any suggestions?
Avatar m tn My cardiologist has me taking 75 mg, of Lopressor, 360 mg, of verapamil, .4 mg nitroglycerin patch. And now he wants to add 10 mg of Ramapril ( Altace ) a day, my recent cardiosrams have have shown sinus bradycardia. That's before starting the Ramapril , I'm just very leary about starting the Ramapril in first of all the highest dose there is, and second of all it could further lower my heart rate and send my heart in to an AV Block that could lead to many things not good !
Avatar f tn I had been on Ambien for less than a year. Mostly 7.5mg a night max. When I went through vicodin withdrawal I upped the dosage to 10mg, which was my script max. I have had withdrawal symptoms galore. I got body jerks, metallic taste, no memory, disorientation, depression, anxiety, difficulty swallowing, breathing difficulty, panic attacks, vertigo, high to low BP... on and on. My dreams were vivid. The very slow taper and OTC drugs helped with the insomnia. Are you back on Lunesta?
Avatar m tn The max dose of acetaminophen is 4 Gm/day (4000 mg). The lethal dost is considered to be 6-10 Gm. Even the 4 Gm per day dose can cause liver damage over an extended period of time.
Avatar f tn So my doc says my cervix is really thick. So I started taking max dose of primrose orally about two weeks ago. And then 4 days ago started doing it vaginally before bed as well. If I've thinned by Monday he will induce me Tuesday. I'll be 39 weeks ftm. What do you guys think the odds are that I've started thinning?
343006 tn?1314446471 I think you should find a new doctor. Most BP meds cause nasty side-effects such as allergies, nasal congestion, sneezing, itching eyes and nose, at least for me. I had to get off ACE, ARB, and alpha blockers. I am now on beta blocker Bystolic. Tired and slower heart rate. Some allergic reaction but not as bad as Diovan, Norvasc, Altace, Exforge, Cardura. I don't know much about CCB;s in general. I empathise with you and wish you the best.
Avatar f tn Hello, what was your highest dose and a big congrats on stopping... I stopped at 3 mg after 10 yrs with a max of 100 mg and my worst withdrawals lasted 10 days then eased up but no sleep and rls lasted a good month. How fast you dropped and max dose to 10 will make a difference. I tried to stop at a higher dose but couldn't. We are all different but methadone has no favors. 3 months 3 yrs it will be very hard. Hang in there it does get better....
233622 tn?1279334905 My neuro told me that the absolutely max dose is 120mg. He started me on 30 mg (10mg three times a day). and I have been given the ok to double up that amount without checking with him...that would put me at 60mg. Sho is right that 80mg is usually the max you would see....
Avatar m tn Our five year old American Staffordshire Terrier had a dose of Iverhart Max (first time he took this) last Friday and Monday he started limping on his back legs. It has gotten worse every day. We took him to the vet yesterday (had to carry him into the truck) and when we got there I was getting ready to pick him up, but he mustered up enough strength to walk into the vets office by himself, so the vet said it was probably arthritis. This morning he could barely walk to go to the bathroom.
15695260 tn?1549593113 Common medications in this class of drugs are commonly used medications such as captopril (Capoten), fosinopril (Monopril), lisinopril (Prinivil or Zestril), perindopril (Aceon), ramipril (Altace) and trandolapril (Mavik). It should be noted that this research was not done as a clinical trial but rather an 'observational study' where older adults with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia were being studied. About a quarter were on ACE inhibitors and they observed this benefit.
