My mother was hospitalized with a high blood pressure emergency (BP of 240), chest pain, and a headache, with scans showing an old stroke in the left side of her brain and a contracted gallbladder; she was initially stable on Stamlo, Atorva, Pan D, Duphalac, Alprax, and A to Z, but after her 14-day check-up, her diagnosis was updated to high blood pressure and an old stroke, and her medications were changed to Cilacar, Ecosprin AV, Albendazole, Pan D, and Duphalac. What should we do now that she is experiencing a burning sensation in her head, general discomfort, and mild chest pain on this new treatment plan?

The burning sensation in her head and mild chest pain could be related to her body adjusting to the new medications, such as Cilacar (cilnidipine) or Ecosprin AV, or fluctuations in her blood pressure. Please check her blood pressure at home right away. It is very important to contact her doctor or cardiologist promptly to report these symptoms so they can evaluate her response to this new treatment plan. If her chest pain worsens, or if she develops shortness of breath, numbness, or difficulty speaking, please seek emergency medical care immediately.

How can my father safely lower his blood pressure to a normal level if it still averages 160/80, even though he gets kidney dialysis twice a week and regularly takes Met XL 50 and Cilacar 10 mg?

For patients undergoing kidney dialysis, blood pressure is closely linked to fluid balance. Often, adjusting his 'dry weight' during dialysis sessions can significantly help lower his readings. I highly recommend consulting his nephrologist to discuss this. The doctor can also evaluate if his Met XL (metoprolol) and Cilacar (cilnidipine) doses need adjusting, or if the timing of these medications should be changed relative to his dialysis schedule. Please do not make any medication changes without his doctor's direct guidance.

Should I follow my doctor's advice to stop taking Cilacar 10 for 10 days to get a wearable blood pressure monitor test, even though I have a family history of high blood pressure and am currently feeling dizzy?

Doctors sometimes pause medications like Cilacar (cilnidipine) to get an accurate baseline during a wearable monitor test. However, because you are currently experiencing dizziness, please do not stop your medication yet. It is very important to contact your doctor's office today to report this symptom before pausing your Cilacar. They can safely evaluate your dizziness and decide if it is safe to proceed with the test or if your plan needs adjustment.

Can a thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level of 4.3 cause sudden, high spikes in blood pressure for a 77-year-old patient who is taking the blood pressure medications Metosartan and Celacar (Cilacar)?

Please be reassured that a TSH level of 4.3 is only mildly elevated and is highly unlikely to cause sudden, high spikes in your blood pressure. Since you are taking Metosartan (telmisartan/metoprolol) and Celacar (cilnidipine), these fluctuations are more likely related to other factors, such as stress, pain, or timing of your doses, rather than your thyroid. I recommend sharing these blood pressure readings with your doctor so they can safely review your medication schedule and ensure you stay comfortable and healthy.

What could be causing my father?s blood pressure to stay consistently high at 150/110 even after his daily medications were increased from Telma 40 mg and Cilacar 5 mg to Telma 80 mg and Cilacar 10 mg, and what options should we discuss with a new doctor?

Sometimes, blood pressure stays elevated due to dietary factors like sodium intake, stress, or secondary medical issues. It is also common to need a third type of medication, such as a low-dose diuretic, to help these medications work better. When you see the new doctor, consider discussing a review of his daily lifestyle, checking for underlying conditions, and whether adding a third complementary medication is appropriate. Please keep a log of his daily readings to share at the appointment.

Now that I have finished my prescribed course of Fabiflu 400mg and Medrol 8mg for an early COVID-19 lung infection, do I need any more medicine, especially since I also take medications for diabetes and high cholesterol and recently stopped taking Cilacar 5mg due to low blood pressure?

Since your acute treatment is over, you generally do not need additional COVID-19 medications unless new symptoms arise. However, because you manage diabetes, high cholesterol, and have recently stopped Cilacar (cilnidipine) due to low blood pressure, it is very important to closely monitor your blood sugar and blood pressure levels. Please consult your physician for a follow-up. They will assess your recovery, safely guide you on when to restart or adjust your chronic medications, and ensure your health remains perfectly on track.
