Suggest Treatment For Dizziness And Palpitation With High BP

Hi, I was taking Simvastatin tabs 20 mg but I started having light headiness dizzingness, tingling in lip, hands and feet ever so often,tiredness, confusion,changes in urination. Most of the time it was hard to urinate but when I did, my bladder wouldn t empty all the way. So it made me have to get up about 3 times per night. I have a heart murmur but my palpitations even got worse. Also muscle pains. This happened once before and I went to the E.R. and they did test and decided it was my cholestoral pill which I quit, so they switched me to simvastatin which I quit but I take Lorsartan for high blood pressure which I quit about 4 days ago because of some side effects like less severe dizzingness and my head feels a little foggy and I have whoosing sound in my ears when I lie down at night. I just want to have a clear head again, so is there a over the counter good high-blood pressure pill I can take? I m taking cholestoff over the counter for my cholestoral which my doc said was fine. Currently I m taking 100mg of sertraline, 20mg of Omeprazole and Levothyroxine. Also I m trying to eat healthier and I m 64 yrs. old. My blood Pressure is currently high . I have an. at home wrist monitor. I just need over the counter high blood pressure pill or something with less side effects a.s.a.p. My doc appt isn t til21st of this month. Thanks for your time and suggestions. Karen

Hello,I have gone through your question.I feel that you have enlargement of prostate which is responsible for your urinary symptoms.I would suggest you to take Tab.prazopress 1 mg at bed time which would take care of your BP ad well .your headache is mostly related to uncontrolled blood pressure.you mentioned that you have heart murmur ,this should be evaluated by echo cardiography.simvastatin is ok for cholesterol.
My best wishes
