Are There Any Side Effects Of Taking Concor Cor 2.5 For High BP?

I m 42 years old.I have a history of high BP (140 / 110) since 2003. My Doctor started with Covance AT and from 2007 I am having Telvas 40 and Concor cor 2.5mg. Last three months I bring some changes in routine. Start brisk walking, control food intake, loosing weight. Within a month I feel better and my bp was like 98 / 65..and the heatrbeat 64. Then my doctor adviced me to stop the Concor cor 2.5mg.I stopped it. And now my average bp is 127 / 76. My question is the process I m going through is perfect?? How long I have to stop the Concor cor 2.5.Is there a chance of anything wrong..?

Hello!

Welcome on HCM!

I carefully passed through your question and would explain that your actual blood pressure values seem to be under control.

This means that you do not need to take Concor, as even after stopping it, your blood pressure values are quite normal.

We can not determine, how long your blood pressure will remain under control.

I would recommend you to follow this healthy lifestyle, because it is the best thing you can do to have a better management of blood pressure.

It is also necessary to closely monitor your blood pressure during the day. If you notice that your blood pressure values go up again, restarting Concor may be needed.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
