Can Cilacar And Triolmighty Be Taken Together?

Hellow doctor: I am taking cilacar 10 mg. daily since 10th May 2016 as prescribed by my Nefrologist. i am also simultaneously taking Triolmighty 40 for BP as prescribed by my physician. Is this combination OK or should I discontinue one of them in over to avoid overdose.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Cilacar contains clinidipne
Triolmighty contains olmesartan, amlodipine and hydrochlorothiazide.
Clinidipne and amlodipine belong to same class of drugs (calcium channel blocker – CCB).
If your blood pressure is stable on these combinations then you can continue these drugs simultaneously. Overdose will be manifested by exaggerated fall in blood pressure (BP).
How much is BP?? Is it low? You have not written here. You can write it later on.
Advice
1.     Continue all drugs
2.     Do not alter dose of drug by yourself unless suggested by your doctor. If your BP is getting low then contact your doctor immediately for review of treatment
3.     Regular exercise at least 30 minutes for 5 days in a week. The best types of exercise for lowering BP include walking, jogging, cycling, swimming or dancing.
4.     Eating a diet that is rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables and low-fat dairy products and skimps on saturated fat and cholesterol
5.     Consume less salt
6.     Avoid smoking, alcohol, coffee and caffeinated beverages
7.     Lose extra weight if you are overweight and keep your body mass index between 19 and 25. BMI is calculated by formula BMI = Weight in Kilograms / (height in meters x height in meters)
8.     Reduce your metal stress because stress activates sympathetic system and increases BP
9.     Measure your BP regularly and be in touch with your doctor
I hope this information will help you. I will be happy if you ask another question
Thanks
