Is Prolomet Intake Advisable For White Coat Hypertension?
For the past 20 days i'm taking prolomet 50 as my doctor told me that i've BP (160/100). But my main concern is that generally i feel nervous,anxieted the moment i enter the doctor;s room and i'll be sure that my BP has rised. The moment i come out of the room i feel relaxed. The pulse rate during the check up was 110 BPM (as my doctor told) and after taking the tablet my pulse is 55 BPM. Is this okay to take these tablets and need your advice.

hello,
I have gone through your query.Thanks for using HCM.
If you have high pulse and BP reading during office visit to doctor you may have white coat hypertension.I suggest you to get your ambulatory BP monitoring done .It will give you reading of BP at diff interval for 24 hours.Depending upon you may take decision to start medicines.
My best wishes
