DEAR USER,
THANKS FOR CONSULTING WITH HCM
I UNDERSTAND YOUR CONCERN
I WOULD HAVE ADVISED YOU WITH TABLET ENALAPRIL OR RAMIPRIL FOR YOUR HYPERTENSION
BUT YOU REQUIRE TO GET POTASSIUM LEVELS AND CREATININE LEVELS DONE BEFORE STARTING THE TABLETS
HENCE I SUGGEST YOU TO CONSULT A PHYSICIAN FOR THE SAME AND GET YOUR TESTS DONE
HOPE I ANSWERED YOUR QUERY. YOU CAN MESSAGE ME FOR ANY FURTHER CONCERNS
