How To Improve Heart Rate And Reduce Blood Pressure?

My Present health conditions:(1) blood pressure is flactuating from 200-230/70-90 since last 3 yrs after taking medicines Lopirel plus, Pentacard, Carvista,Tiginor and Osartil 50mg. My pulse rate is now 38-42 due to extreme Bradi-cardia. Now only take medicines - osartil 50mg in the morning, osartil 50plus in the night and Ecosprin-75 in the night. I want my heart rate to be increased by medicine and lowering of the blood pressure.

Hello,

I understand your concern and would explain that your blood pressure values seem to be really high.

This is probably because Osartil 100mg daily is not effective in controlling blood pressure values.

For this reason, I would recommend adding other anti-hypertensive drugs to your current therapy like a diuretic (hydrochlorothiazide) and a calcium channel blocker (amlodipine, lercanidipine, etc.) which do not have any effects on the heart rate.

Switching from Osartil to another more potent ARB drug (olmesartan, telmisartan, etc.) would help manage better your blood pressure values.

Regarding your low heart rate, I would recommend performing a resting ECG and a cardiac ultrasound.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka,
Cardiologist
