I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing a sudden increase in heartbeat along with high blood pressure. Telma H is a medication that combines Telmisartan and Hydrochlorothiazide, which helps lower blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels and reducing fluid retention.

A blood pressure reading of 140/96 mmHg is considered elevated and may require attention, especially if accompanied by a rapid heartbeat. This could indicate that your blood pressure is not well controlled or that you might be experiencing side effects or other health issues.

Here are some important points to consider:

• Sudden changes in heartbeat and high blood pressure can be serious and should be evaluated promptly.
• Ensure you are taking Telma H exactly as prescribed by your doctor.
• Avoid potassium supplements or salt substitutes unless your doctor has approved them.
• If you experience symptoms like muscle pain, weakness, dark urine, or severe dizziness, seek medical help immediately.
• Lifestyle factors such as stress, caffeine, or dehydration can also affect your heart rate and blood pressure.

What you should do next:

• Contact your doctor or a cardiologist as soon as possible to discuss these symptoms.
• If you experience chest pain, severe shortness of breath, fainting, or severe headache, call emergency services immediately (Apollo Emergency - 1066).

Your doctor can assess your condition, possibly adjust your medication, and recommend further tests if needed to ensure your heart and blood pressure are managed safely. Please seek medical attention promptly to address these symptoms.To narrow down potential causes, we will need some more information.Please tell me your age and gender. I understand you're concerned about your increased heartbeat and high blood pressure (96/140), especially since you're taking Telma H.
