Avatar m tn Approximately 95% of individuals are able to lower their blood pressure at least moderately by making certain lifestyle changes, and often dramatically with drug therapy. If treatment is successful, the individual may be able to lower the drug dosage to maintain a healthy blood pressure. Hopefully you are in the 95% group.

After this I am continuously monitoring my BP for next two days after taking the drug everyday in the morning after break fast and the readings are 130/90 and 130/80.....I have following questions: 1.

Avatar m tn Hi Everyone, I'm 41 male with history of hypertension. My BP stays around 170/100. Highest was recorded 176/110. I have been on Telmisartan 40mg for few weeks but it killed my sex drive entirely. I stopped taking it & gradually recovered from low libido. Also i've noticed a general decline in libido & an onset of ED after i crossed age 40. Now my libido is not that strong as it used to be 4 years back even without medicine.
Avatar m tn IS THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS TAKING COMBINATION OF TELMISARTAN &AMLODIPINE FOR LONG TIME
336017 tn?1263579257 the best ARB to take is probably telmisartan because of its high tissue penetration. The best ACE inhibitor to take is perindopril. Some other ARBs and ACE inhibitors may work less effectively or not at all (some ARBs I know to be good - besides telmisartan - are valsartan, irbesartan, candesartan. Most of them are good EXCEPT for losartan, which is a surmountable antagonist and, theoretically, would lose its effect over time). Next fact: you need to take a high dose.
Avatar n tn 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.

Avatar f tn Does anyone have any input on this drug with a teen? Or does anyone have a child in this type of situation? Any input would be comforting to me.
Avatar f tn gud day!pls interfret my hepatitis profile HBsAg reactive 4684 cutoff 1.000,Anti-Hbs non reactive 2.00 cutoff 2.00-10.0IU/L Anti-Hbe reactive 0.006 cutoff 1.000 HBeAg nonreactive 0.001 cutoff 1.000 Anti_HBcIgG nonreactive 0.005 cutoff 1.000 Anti-HAvIgm nonreactive 0.0359 cutoff 1.000 and i have ultrasound my liver is normal span w/ regular margin.....
Avatar n tn This will usually disappear gradually with the continuous use of the drug within 2-3 months. However, some patients complain from persisting cough for 6 months and even for longer time. A good alternative in this case is Angiotensin II receptor blockers (eg Candesartan, Telmisartan, Valsartan..).
Avatar f tn my friend had a hepatitis profile. kindly interpret the result. ANTI-HBs-nonreactive, Anti-HBe(reverse)-reactive, and ANTI-HBc IgG (reverse) - reactive..
Avatar n tn As well as taking drugs to lower lipid production in the Liver, they added a drug to lower gut absorption of fats. This lowered my LDL even further and my trigs finally dropped into the recommended zone.
932718 tn?1288324930 You need this medication to keep the lipid profile the way it is. Furthermore, statins (cholesterol pills) lower the risk of a heart attack by their membrane stabilizing properties.
Avatar f tn You take metoprolol, diltiazem, enalapril and telmisartan. The first two agents address primarily heart rate (HR) but are not great blood pressure (BP) drugs. Speaking of HR, what is the reason that you see an electrophysiologist? Atrial fibrillation? and are you feeling poorly when your heart rate is 40s?
Avatar n tn Personally, I take valsartan, but my friends have experienced similar success (or better) with candesartan, telmisartan, losartan (although this drug is surmountable and thus theoretically not the best one to take), irbesartan, and, for ACE inhibitors, perindopril.
603015 tn?1329862973 I started going through withdrawals and psychological rebounds and such only a few hours after time to take one medication where I was forced to go through cold turkey withdrawl and it kept getting more intense and then after a while my psychological problems came back in full force worse than ever.
1689583 tn?1387752394 I journal my experience and a little about Pharmasset in my journals which you can read at your leisure by going to my profile page. There are a number of us on this forum that have done the same. There is a discussion now on HepatitisSocial about this and someone from AU has apparently also been involved in the trials. I have no idea what is going on in Montreal nor when you would have access to this type of medication.
Avatar m tn I ended up on a prescription of 40mg of Telmisartan and 2.5mg of Nebivolol daily, and a diuretic which was cancelled by my Doctor. The Telmisartan was pared back to 20mg some time later after my readings were getting too low. My BP is around the ideal 120/80 mark and my resting pulse is normally around 50 but sometimes gets as low as 45.
Avatar f tn You could however check your vitamin b1, b6, b12 levels, blood sugar profile, and thyroid profile to rule out hypothyroidism etc. rule out any tight fitting shoes or shoe bite, and spinal degenerative disc disease causing lumbosacral nerve root compression. Your neurologist would guide you on these lines. Take care and keep me updated.
