Hi, This is Manoj. I am having hypertension when i checked with the doctor yesterday. It showed 160/110 and next day in the evening the reading goes high to 180/110 and then day after tomorrow in the morning, it showed 160/100. Doctor prescribed me Atenolol 50 mg for 10 days and in the 8th day of this course, she will check my pressure again. Should I take blood pressure tablet? Will it be okay by dieting and exercise instead of taking medicine?
I am 40 years old & I m on Atenolol for tachycardia. Because of fluid intake my doctor put me on Triamterene a year ago. I have been extremely tired, no energy at all. I feel at times that I could just sleep for days. The fatigue gets worse as the day goes on. I checked my BP yesterday and at 2:05pm it was 77/56, pulse 83 at 2:09 96/52, pulse 80 at 3:39pm 100/59, pulse 80 & at 4:45pm 92/52, pulse 65. This morning at 9:12am it was 97/55, pulse 83. Is it too low or am I just imagining things.
I have been told by my doctor to stop taking Atenolol, in order to see if it is necessary for me to take it (100 mg mane), as well as Ramapril 2.5 mg, to control my hypertension. Is it safe just to discontinue Atenolol, or should I cut the dose gradually?
