My BP was 160/100,when physician prescribed Espin-2.5mg and Atenij 25mg once per day in the morning since sept.2011.

BP is monitored and is now at 130/80-85mm Hg.Now on checking PSA it is observed 8.68 and free PSA 2.35.Urologist prescribed to take Silodisin 8 capsule,one at night and Dutasteride 0.5mg one in the morning for one month.I don't have urination problem,but frequency is high as my water intake is high.Dr.said the prostate enlargement is external and it will contract.It's size is 55.7gm as per Sonography at my age 74.
I would like to know whether my BP drugs have any interactions with these capsules?
I am also advised Folimax Plus -30 tablets for a month,which i am not taking now as I do take Supradyn one/day.
Kindly advise based on any side effects/interaction of these drugs.
Thanking you.

Asked on : 31 Jan 2012   

I have been having problems with high blood pressure for a while now. My doctor put me on a low dose diuretic which has lowered it a few points. My issue is that the longer I sit the higher my blood pressure goes. Once I get up and moving around or lay down it seems to bring my blood pressure back down. I am a computer programmer and I sit all day writing code. Could I somehow be effecting renin excretion by sitting? Or something else? I also have sinus tachycardia my resting heart rate averages at about 110.

As an example I have been sitting for an hour now and my bp is 149/73

According to your charts,

Average Blood Pressure
For young people 120/80 mmHg
For old people 140/90 mmHg


I am taking a generic Amlodipine 5 mgs a day in the morning, and I think my bp is now more or less 135-80-75.

Should I take more Amlodipine or even more medicines to bring it down further, is that advisable?

My mother is 66 yrs. old. Two months ago once she blacked out and fell down , early in the morning while going towards toilet. Today also she fell down in the toilet by 4 AM and got hurt. In both the occasions she could not remember how she fell down. She suffers from hypertension and is under medication. We checked her BP in both the occasions, it was OK (150/70 ).
What can be the cause ?
