Can you take 3 different blood pressure tablets in 1 day.?

Question

Zanadip 20mg...Atacand Plus 16/12.5 mg and Noten 50mg..My father takes these my mind boggles? Prescribed by a doctor or do you think a mistake has been made with medication?

Answer 1

I hope he sees his doctor on a regular basis, and continues to ask if it is still necessary to take all 3.

Answer 2

take your meds exactly as prescribed.  if you have specific questions, contact the doctor.

Answer 3

yes. what he gets was combined therapy. one patient can get different groups of drugs to help with the hypertension. for example- combination of AT2inhibitor with beta blockers

or  a-blckers with beta blockers.

diff groups helps in diff way. overdoses of one group is bad therefore combination therapy is the choice.
