My blood pressure and pulse were previously around 160/100 and 85. I was recommended Telma 80 H. My recent readings have improved, but my pulse spiked to 117 yesterday. What should I do? I'm 49 years old.
It is good that your blood pressure has improved with Telma 80-H. A temporary pulse rise to 117 can happen due to stress, anxiety, dehydration, fever, caffeine, or exertion. Sit and rest, drink water, and recheck your pulse after 10 to 15 minutes. If your pulse stays above 100 at rest, happens repeatedly, or you have symptoms like chest pain, dizziness, or breathlessness, please consult your doctor.
