Hello and welcome to the forum! Sorry to hear you are having problems controlling your blood pressure. The medication you have been prescribed is a combination of three types of medication ; an ARB (Angiotensin II receptor blockers), a CCI (calcium channel inhibitor) and a diuretic. Combination therapies are increasingly common as working in different ways they prove more effective than increasing the dose of a single medication.
I am on a combination therapy of an ACE inhibitor and a beta blocker (also lowers pulse). Previously I was on an ACE inhibitor, a CCI and a diuretic.
It is unlikely you will have any issues but with the diuretic you may need the loo more frequently. Let us know how you get on.
Sorry I cannot help you bayram. I was on Losartan for Raynaud's. It did help in that, but I had to stop it when got Atrial Fib which needed other medications, I never had high BP in the first place and the combination of all the medications actually reduced my BP into the low BP range.
How do you deal with it?
What did you enjoy about cardiac rehab and what did you think was missing?
What do you want? ( really, really want)
When you are just not sure what to do?
What do you actually do if the hard wear kicks off?!
