Q. I am feeling uneasy and my BP reading is lower than usual. Why?
Hi doctor,
Every time my blood pressure will be in the range of 160/110 mmHg or 150/100 mmHg. But, today, it is 90/70 mmHg. I am feeling uneasy and uncomfortable. Previously, I had angio twice, and it was all right. I am currently on Coversyl Dytor, Ecosprin, Rosuvastatin, Starpress and Vertin. I had ECG last week. I was your opinion on my problem.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
- How much Coversyl (Perindopril) and Starpress (Metoprolol) you are taking? Have you confirmed the readings twice?
- If your bp is low, then you certainly need to reduce the dosage of either Coversyl or Starpress. Let me know the dosage so that we can modify it.
- Also, monitor your blood pressure thrice a day for one week and once or twice. If such low BP occurs, then you can have salt and sugar water to raise it.
- I guess you did not have any chest pain or heaviness. In short, there is no need to worry.
- We will just reduce the dosage and also space out the drugs, like one in the morning and other in the evening. You discuss these issues with your doctor.
