Suggest Treatment For High BP And Chills
My blood pressure has been high for about a week now, 165/92. I m getting chills today and after taking aspirin, I feel better. My blood pressure medication, Atenolol, 50mg has been changed to a different manufacturer. Could that be why it s not working? What should I do?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
After going through your medical details I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that you might require another anti-hypertensive drug to manage your blood pressure with or without Atenolol. Kindly consult a physician personally with your recorded blood pressure reading at different times so that he can prescribe the new drug.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
