micardis

Avatar n tn m 43 and my pressure generally ran around 185 over 120 (range). My doctor put me on a medicine called Micardis HCT which is a combination medication with the common diuretic hydrochlorothiazide and the drug telmisartan. This is the first time I have been on blood pressure medicine, and the drug has worked very well in terms of my blood pressure itself. I take my pressure at home with an electric blood pressure monitor and I now average about 130 over 72 to 75.

2112617 tn?1334326066 My cardiologist has put me on HCT 25mg. That was two weeks ago. Now it seems as though my weight loss is at a standstill. What do I do? My starting weight before wls was 325. I am now 214. My ideal weight is 150. Help.
95361 tn?1219870284 I have recently changed from Metformin 100 mg x 2, to Coreg 25 mf x 2, and I also take Adalat 60mg, Lisinopril 20 mg and Micardis 80mg. I take Metformin 850 x 3, Januvia 100mg (only for about the last two weeks) and just started on Avandia 4 mg for diabetes. My other meds are for thyroid, GERD, potassium, generalized dystonia (levodopa). Is this something I should be concerned about? I see my doctor in a week and a half, but do I need to contact her before then if this happens again?
369861 tn?1306275686 my endocrinologist took me off the diovan hct and didnt want me to have any diuretics. However, he wanted me to have a renin and aldersterone test. Which i have not taken yet. Anyway, my body has been retaining fluid and I went to my primary yesterday and he wants me to see a cardiologist for congestive heart failure, low postassium and when can I go back on diuretics. Is CHF really an issue in this case. I'm really concerned.
Avatar n tn My dr put me on Benicar 20mg and Toprol XL 25mg to lower my blood pressure. I have a fast pulse too (always over 100). Will these meds lower my pulse also?
Avatar f tn my Dad went to see our family doctor. had his blood work and ecg done and showed no sign of heart attack over the weekend. the cardiologist and physician talked and they put my dad back to metoprolol 25mg with the diovan 160/12.5mg. so now he's on lipitor 80mg once daily, metoprolol 25mg (2x daily), diovan, and aspirin 81mg. any comment on this prescription mix? thanks so much for your advice.
Avatar m tn with high blood pressure and have been taking Valsartan 320mg w/HCT 25mg along with Amlodipine 2.5mg (which was prescribed in August 2014). My most recent Primary Doc just switched me to Metoprolol Tarta 25mg and off of the Amlodipine to see if that was the cause of the Vertigo, sadly the symptoms are still there.
Avatar n tn hey i've been taking strattrea 25mg for 1 week 40 for 1 week 60 for 2 weeks now my dosage has been increased to 80 i really want this to work...i feel tired all the time how much longer should it take for the effects to kick in?
1260907 tn?1269748318 I have gained a lot of body fat, I am currently on Micardis HCT for BP, Lortab for back pain post surgery, Lexapro, and of course the ambien to help me get to sleep. Dont get me wrong I couldnt stay up at night but I worked 3rd shift for 3 years till 10 months ago so night time is hard for me to fall asleep, when I do sleep it is not good sleep so I assume that is why I wanna sleep all the time. Just in general what is the chances of me having an underactive thyroid?
Avatar m tn Started on 80mg, tried 160mg, back to 80mg and currently on Diovan 160mg/12.5mg HCT as of a week ago. My BP was spiking to 150/100 so my doctor decided to try adding the water tab. Here in lies the issue. Over the course of the last year I started noticing that I was getting very tired, and especially dizzy throughout much of the day. Headaches have increased, stiff muscles, and a general feeling of sluggish.
Avatar m tn took 25mg methadone,still withdrawling,took 80mg,oxycontin,will i feel my dose?
Avatar f tn I have been taking Atenolol 25 mg twice daily and Micardis 20 mg once daily. It's my fertile time. We had a mishap with a condom last night and I am concerned that I could become pregnant. Is the medication a concern, or should I contact my doctor?
Avatar f tn I use to take it only when I needed it but when my wife was diagnosed with cancer last year I started abusing them for relief from emotional pain. My wife also has pain pills. She has 80mg oxycontin that she takes twice a day as well as 5mg oxycodone that she takes for breakthrough pain. She hardly ever takes the breakthrough meds and when her doctor changed her oxycontin from 40mg to 80mg she still had most of a months supply.
Avatar n tn I have been taking Oxy for about a year. I have weened myself down to 1 80mg pill per day. I bought some 25MG Methadone pills and I would like to know if there is anyone out there that can tell me how to do this safely. Please help. I really want to get off the oxy.

Avatar m tn 1. Splenic contarctions under duress can affect HCT count 2. Dehaydration can also be a cause, though vet said potassium levels were normal, in fact they were super high-normal, one more point and they would be high on the reference range 2. Dipstick analysis prone to false positives, therefore questioning accuracy of +++ on protein My questions: 1) Blood was drawn at 6pm, did not leave for the lab until after 9am the following morning. Could suspect handling/storage impact HCT readings?
Avatar f tn Went to the Dr I was given HCT 25mg well this medicine made me feel so tired and withdrawn I decided myself after I called the Dr several times to break the pill in half and take half in the am and the other half @ nite well unfortunately the headaches dont stop .
663901 tn?1232649671 I took 40mg a day for two days and then was bumped up to 80mg. I continued taking the 80mg a day but was completely sick on this medication. I would have waves of dizziness, flu-like symptoms, blurred vision. Finally I was able to get the pdoc to call me back on 10/24/08 and I told him that I was unable to tolerate the medication. He advised me that I should be at a higher dose, and when I told him that I couldn't handle the 80mg a day, he agreed to cut me back to 40mg.
Avatar m tn It's been a little over 24 hours since the last time i used oxycontin 80mg, i know there are people on here with serious problems to legitamte conditions and would probably be extremely mad to hear my story. I'm looking for whatever help and support i can get, recently i been smoking approx anywhere from 2-20 oxy 80 mg a day for about 1 month and a half now.
Avatar m tn i've been taking around 80mg of Codeine (5 x 16mg dosages through day) for 15 years. I've just realised that I therefore have a drug proble. I am desperate to stop - Can't see my GP/Doctor for various reasons. My question is, if I go cold turkey will the low dose I've been taking work in my favour or will I suffer hell. Also if I go cold turkey, will I crave the tablets (I don't at present) what will stop me rushing out to the pharmacy and buy more?

Avatar n tn Can Viagra be crushed. I am proscribed 25mg of viagra which I buy as 50mg pills to save money and cut in half. Cutting a viagra in half is not easy because they are hard coated and not scored (and oddly shaped). I find that 25mg is a little too much since it has side effects (a low blood pressure feeling, even though I don't think my blood pressure is really low). I have tried cutting the 50mg into fourth (very difficult), but this seems like a little too little.
Avatar f tn I am doing a very minimal amount, but I am scared to death and I want to quit. I am not going to do CT at this point. I have purchased a few 80mg Oxys and Suboxone. Know this is were I need help. This is what Im trying to do. I am going to quit H and do about 25mg of Oxy a day for a week to 10 days. What does it feel like kicking a 25 mg Oxy habbit? What am I looking at here. I have the Subs if **** gets extreme, but will I need them? If so how would YOU use them. Please help.
