I had my last delivery 9 years ago. In the past few weeks, I have experienced high blood pressure, and after delivery, I was prescribed Olvance H 20. My blood pressure has generally been around 130/90 for the past 20 years. A doctor at Manipal advised that I can gradually stop the medication, but I need to lose weight, which I am working on through the gym and walking. I tried switching to Olvance 20 as recommended, but I experienced headaches. What should I do?
Since your blood pressure has been around 130/90 for many years, you should not stop or change the dose on your own. Headache after switching to Olvance 20 may mean your BP is fluctuating, so it is important to monitor your readings regularly and consult your doctor before making further changes. Continue working on weight loss, exercise, and a low-salt diet, as these will help in safely reducing medication over time.
