I have been suffering from hypertension for over 10years and have been advised nebicard 10 and 150 ecosprin at night and covance D in the morning. was doing quite ok till about 5days ago when I had tooth extraction and had to be given quite a few local anesthetic jabs as it was a difficult extraction. am on augmentin 625 thrice a day and also combiflam twice a day. my BP shot up and was at 180/110 for a couple days and didnt come down ispite of my taking extra nebicard tabs. then my doc prescribed snumilo 5 which I have been on for last 3 days. now my BP stays at 140/90 most times but goes up to 160/100 when its nearing tab time. what do i do? a little worried. I am 55years old. thank you.

The use of augmenting (antibiotic) along with generally do not rise your BP. So YOY can safely use augmenting for the duration prescribed by your dentist. If the BP remains high i.e. >150/90 mm Hg, you can change Medicare to Medicare - H in the morning which consist one additional Chat Doctor.  Rest don't worry the BP will get controlled. You also have to decrease the salt intake in diet for the optimal BP control. Thanks
