General & Family Physician, Dr. Varinder's Response
Hello,
Please avoid beta blockers as metoprolol and calcium channel blockers as amlodipine. These will create a problem in bundle block and a low pulse rate. Usually, blood pressure falls at night.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Varinder Joshi , General & Family Physician
