Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
You are not taking drugs correctly.
You are taking more than 1 beta blocker.
Atenolol is beta blocker. Inderal is having propranolol. It is also beta blocker. Sustamet 25 is having sustained release metoprolol. It is also beta blocker.
No need to take all these 3 drugs. Better to take only Sustamet 25.
Sustamet will also help in controlling blood pressure.
Continue newtel and telvas. Both are good antihypertensive drugs.
Along with drugs, you need to follow strict salt restriction in diet.
Do aerobic exercise like running, cycling, swimming etc. All these will also help in controlling blood pressure.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
