72 Years Old. On Medication For HBP. Having Memory Loss. Side Effect Of Medicine?
Hello,my father is 72 yrs old.He has high BP and is on medication for more than 20 yrs.Presently, he is having bouts of memory loss .One doctor said it is TIA. Accordingly Ecospirin AV 75 was added to the druglist. Presently he is taking eslo 2.5, Ecospirin AV 75 and Minipress XL 2.5. He now complains that he is having excessive urination . Is this some side effect of the drugs? Please reply.

hi dear, myself Dr Sachin Verma..urinary frequency is a documented side effect of both eslo and minipress..but sometimes patients also drink excess water after TIA and other brain events which may also cause excess urination so this possibility should also be ruled out
