Should my father continue taking Prolomet XL R 50mg/5mg for his heart recovery after a stent procedure, even though his blood pressure is currently normal, or does he need to see his doctor to get his blood pressure checked again?

He should continue taking Prolomet XL (metoprolol and ramipril) exactly as prescribed. A normal blood pressure reading means the medication is doing its job successfully. More importantly, after a stent procedure, these medicines are vital for protecting his heart muscle and helping it heal, not just for managing blood pressure. Stopping them suddenly can be risky. He should definitely see his cardiologist for a scheduled follow-up to check his progress, but please do not alter his dose without the doctor's direct guidance.
