Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Dear Doctor, I am a female aged 59 years. I have borderline blood pressure, sometimes can be high. (150/96). My doctor put me on Micardis 20mg. After taking that my blood pressure was 106/63 and my heartbeat over 100 per minute. Do you advise me to continue with my medication? What is your suggestion? Thank you very much for your answer.
Probably 20 mg was high dose for you, it cause low blood pressure, which caused elevated heart rate. I would advise you try to take half dose for upcoming 2-3 days.
Wishing you good health
