Can Olmezest Beta be stopped after BP comes under control?
Patient: Hi I am 27 years old and diagnsoed with hypertension having b.p. at 150/110 usually. I have been prescribed Olmezest Beta 50, I want to know if there is a possibility of stopping the medicine in futute once the blood pressure is under control.ThanksAnupam Doctor: Ideally antihypertensive medicines must never be stopped.but as you are 27 you must undergo investigations to find out any cause suggesting you may secondary hypertension.if u find cause then first address the removeal of cause and then it may be first reduced and then stopped.if no cause found then it should be considered primary HT starting at young age and u must continue medicine life long.
