It is generally very safe for your father to receive his second vaccine dose tomorrow. His ongoing medications?telmisartan (Tazloc), cilnidipine (Cetanil), aspirin and atorvastatin (Ecosprin AV), Zincovit, cilostazol (Stiloz), and pregabalin (Pregalin MSR)?do not have any known harmful interactions with the vaccine. Please ensure he continues taking them as prescribed. His blood sugar of 195 mg/dL and mild finger swelling are not reasons to delay vaccination. However, do share his complete medical history and medication list with the doctor at the vaccination center before the shot for final clearance.

As a 35-year-old female taking Tazloc 20 for high blood pressure, my heart ultrasound showed thickening of my heart muscle (concentric LVH); does high blood pressure have to damage other organs like the kidneys or eyes before it affects the heart, could a blocked nose at night be a symptom of this heart condition, is this thickening reversible, and is there a chance the ultrasound result was simply a technician's error?

High blood pressure does not follow a set order; it can affect the heart (causing concentric LVH) without damaging your kidneys or eyes first. A blocked nose at night is unrelated to this heart condition and is likely due to allergies. Most importantly, this heart thickening is often reversible with consistent blood pressure control using medications like Tazloc (telmisartan) and healthy lifestyle changes. While technician errors can occasionally occur, it is best to have a cardiologist review the scan to be sure.

Is a pulse rate of 70 to 73 normal for a 69-year-old woman who is taking Tazloc for blood pressure?

Yes, a resting pulse rate of 70 to 73 beats per minute is absolutely normal and healthy. For most adults, a normal resting heart rate ranges between 60 and 100 beats per minute. Your blood pressure medication, Tazloc (telmisartan), works to relax your blood vessels and typically does not have a major effect on your heart rate. It is wonderful that you are actively monitoring your health. Please continue to keep a log of your readings and share them with your doctor during your regular checkups to ensure everything remains well-controlled.

My 50-year-old wife takes Tazloc 40 for high blood pressure, which is now well-controlled, but she feels blood rushing to her head and sweats whenever she bends down; should we proceed with the recommended brain scan and blood vessel imaging (MRI and angiogram) first, or should we consult a brain specialist (neurologist) first, and could these symptoms be related to neck artery problems or vertigo?

Feeling a rush of blood and sweating when bending can be linked to physical pressure changes, inner ear issues like vertigo, or occasionally neck blood vessel variations. I gently suggest consulting a neurologist first. A specialist can perform a clinical exam to determine if the MRI and angiogram are truly necessary, saving you from unnecessary testing. Please rest assured; these symptoms are very common and highly manageable. For now, encourage her to move and bend slowly to prevent sudden pressure shifts.

Is it clinically safe to reduce a long-term Tazloc (telmisartan) dosage of 20 mg twice daily for a patient whose average blood pressure is currently 138/85 mmHg?

Your average blood pressure of 138/85 mmHg is currently stable, but it is sitting right at the upper limit of our ideal target range. Reducing your dose of Tazloc (telmisartan) right now could cause your blood pressure to rise further. Because of this, it is safest not to reduce your medication without consulting your doctor first. They can safely evaluate your heart health and guide you on any potential dosage changes or lifestyle steps to keep your numbers beautifully controlled.

Are my 67-year-old mother's blood pressure readings okay, especially since they seem a bit high in the morning after stopping Tazloc 40 at night while still taking Cilacart in the morning?

It is very common to see a rise in morning blood pressure after stopping a nighttime medication like Tazloc (telmisartan), even while continuing Cilacart (cilnidipine) in the morning. Stopping a blood pressure medication can reduce overnight control, leading to higher readings when she wakes up. Please be reassured that this is a manageable issue. I highly recommend sharing these morning readings with her doctor. They can safely evaluate her overall trends and decide whether to adjust her morning dose or restart a night time treatment to keep her safely protected.

I have been taking Tazloc-20 Tablet for six months without high blood pressure. My doctor prescribed it, but I am concerned about using a blood pressure medication as a diabetic patient. Please advise.

Even if your blood pressure is currently normal, taking Tazloc-20 Tablet (Telmisartan) is important, as it not only lowers blood pressure but also helps protect your heart, kidneys, and blood vessels from complications that diabetes can cause over time. Do not stop the medication on your own, and consult your doctor if you have any concerns.
