Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you are wondering if Coversyl Plus the right medication for elevated BP levels . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like side effects of blood pressure medicine , ear infection , signs of heart failure or diabetic condition . Side effects of certain medicine can also cause such symptoms as in your case , so also consult doctor who prescribed coversyl . I would suggest you to consult cardiologist for proper examination . Doctor may order ECG , TMT , complete blood profile . Doctor may prescribe frusamide , aspirin , may alter the blood pressure medicines or prescribe substitute . Doctor may also refer your to endocrinologist for diabetes or ENT specialist for ear condition .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
