I have been diagnosed with PRM and am being treated on reducing doses of Predisolene and feel better except for lightheadiness in the mornings. It improves as the day goes on. My question is. is Coversyl for high blood pressure save to take with Predisolene. I am 78 and have always been healthy. thanks. Beryl

hi
The high blodd pressure should be monitored two three times a day and depending on heart and kidney status anti-hypertensive medicines are prescribed also depending on your blood lipid profile and GFR (kidney function tests), so best course is to get check up by a physician to determine choice od blood pressure medication
thanks
