Temgesic - Buprenorphine difference
Hello team 😊 I have recently started Temgesic 🥳🥳 and my neuro advised breaking the dose to twice in 24 hours. I made a straight switch, (with a 12 or so hour break from Oxynorm) and so far everything is very positive. After many years of broken sleep, say around 4/5 hours a night, I can now sleep

donedarone
i am on vacation until Friday. Recently I have found that my Donedarone tablets are sticking in my throat. I was told it may have gone down and just feels like it’s stuck. It’s a big tablet like Panadol only bigger. However I am now finding that my resting pulse is anywhere between 60 and 70 whereas

Parkinson's PLUS +
Both MSA and Parkinson's disease can cause dizziness when standing up (
orthostatic
hypotension
) due to a drop in blood pressure, which, in MSA, may be severe enough to cause brief blackouts.

Food question
I know a healthy diet is good for keeping the bp and heart healthy and being new to high bp, I was wondering about yogurt as I eat it daily with fresh fruit and granola. I have Greek yogurt generally but is there a better option? I get lower the fat the better but then they are generally higher in sugar

viagra
I’m taking Felodipine for slightly raised BP and it’s working well . Unfortunately it’s causing some mild ED. I’ve tried other BP meds but can’t tolerate them. I had an ablation for AF nearly 12 months ago which has been successful. The urologist is suggesting viagra or similar. I’m worried it

Dosing with Potassium Chloride
Hello, The potassium/sodium balance is identified as an important driver of high blood pressure. This is what I believe underlies recommendations to consume fresh fruit and veg to help high bp. The only issue is that with busy lives etc it is sometimes difficult to keep up with the 5/day recommendation

Autoimmune Autonomic Ganglionopathy Associated with Voltage-Gated Potassium Channel Antibodies
Subsequent evaluations revealed progressive cardiovascular adrenergic impairment with evidence of
orthostatic
hypotension
associated with a rise in the antibody titer. At that time, treatment with IVIG was initiated.

Conflict between urine microalbumin and creatinine levels
I am a 52 yrs old man, an engineer from Sudan. I am on Crestor 10mg since 2007 with controlled lipid profile except HDL around 40mg/dl, also on Telmisartan 40mg since 2010 which reduced urine microalbumin from 50 to 26 mcg/l. I am a neither diabetic nor hypertensive. Recently my PB dropped down to 60

From EHA June 2022. Treating hypertension in patients receiving BTK inhibitors
My own Ibrutinib induced hypertension has been tricky to treat and Losartan, which did suit me, had to be stopped as it was contraindicated. Now on Amlopidine and it's not effective at all so going back to Losartan now that I'm off Ibrutinib. Interesting in that he says that more than one class of

Blood Pressure tablets.
Can anyone help in regard to blood pressure tablets that do not have much in the way of side-effects. Currently I am taking Bendroflumethiazide 2.5mg which are fine. Because my blood pressure is now slightly raised I need to take a different tablet. I have tried Amlodipine and Rampril 2.5 mg - both

Pulmonary Fibrosis/Pulmonary Hypertension how long?
I know that we have very different experiences with our ILD. I had a look on an American PH news site and see that they have been testing an oral spray which has given quite favourable results for PF sufferers. Wonder how long it will take for UK to get it! Here is an extract from the article. It would

Long term use of Duloxetine
Hi, I have been taking Duloxetine continuously since 2003. I did try Sertraline but I couldn't function. Seeing my GP at the moment is a nightmare. I am just aware that my anxiety episodes are getting more frequent with no rhyme or reason for them. Have they stopped working? and is it dangerous to be

is the most common side effect of excessive alcohol consumption when taking tadalafil. A headache, dizziness, and fainting might result, and you run the risk of harming yourself as a result.

Avoid medication - and suffer!
I didn't get the big nasties (hallucinations, compulsive behaviours etc) but , maybe it made me cough, made me tired at midday, made my chest tight (it didn't actually cause me breathing difficulties, I just felt odd), and maybe I got light headed bending down, and maybe that was
