i am 38 yrs (female) & undergone renal transplant in 2003. i was on hypertensive drugs for last 8 years. i was on drugs aten50 BD, Dilzem 60 BD, Losar 50 BD for hypertension. my regular levels of blood pressure was maintained at 140 to 150/ 80 to 90. for last 4 months my BP levels have shot up to 180 to 185/ 80 to 90. Doctors have asked me to stop Dilzem 60 & Losar 50 & added new drugs arkamin 2 tablets thrice, minipress xl 5mg BD & also added Asomex 5 mg once a day in morning. i want to know if this conbination & drugs are OK for post renal transplant patients like me. Please advise.
Hi noted all your details dearth combination given to you by your doctor is perfect one for renal patients your target BP should be 130/85 mm of calcium channel blocker amlodipine is highly safe in renal patient try to avoid a prescription of loser by any cardiologist in future as often in renal patient with deranged kidney parameters at 1 antagonists are not indicated you current medication is a good one take your BP every third day and maintain its records try doing regular exercise 45 minutes a day avoid too much fat and oily foodtxhave a good recovery
