Brief Answer:
Take amixide H along with other cardiac medication.

Detailed Answer:
Hello , I am Dr. Mody and I would be addressing your concern.
I went through the information you base provided in detail and would hereby enlist my suggests .
1) Do continue amixide H . It has a different role particular for your headache, sleep , anxiety .
Even if you consider stopping it in future you have to do it slowly over 3 months , sudden stoppage can cause all the symptoms you have described for sure.
2) Monit sr causes headache , however it is important to note that it only occurs when the medication is started , ad you take it for a 3- months , the body gets adapted to it and the side effect disappears. So considering you are taking it for so many years , I don't see monit sr as the cause of headache in you . Hence amixide H is completely justified for your case .

Lastly prolomet xl and telmisartan have different mechanism of action and have different way by which it protects the heart .
So stopping one and taking another is again a query , also sudden stopping of prolomet xl cases the pulse to shoot high causing panic like situation .

So I would suggest matosartan 50 mg .It contains telmisartan 40 mg and metoprolol 50 mg , which is the content of prolomet xl.

Lastly YES you can take amixide H along with the prescription of second doctor you have visited.

Let me know if any clarification needed and I would be happy to help .

Brief Answer:
continue above medications and slowly add telmisartan starting with 20 mg

Detailed Answer:
Hello ,
1) as you had mentioned that your lipid profile is staying good , your sgpt being on the higher side .its best to avoid lipicard at this point of time . I would suggest plain rosuvastatin (razel) 10 mg instead
2) I presume that your new cardiologist must have started telmisartan 80 mg because your blood pressure would be high as telmisartan is far more effective in controlling blood pressure as compared to prolomet.
So shifting back to prolomet may not be enough to control your blood pressure.
However presently continue with the regime of prolomet monit sr and deplatt A and amixide h at night and add telmisartan starting from 20 mg once a day and then increasing its does as per the Need according to the blood pressure recording rather than directly starting with 80 mg to minimise the withdrawal you faced .
Let me know if any clarification needed and I would be happy to help.
