[|Human|] My mother is 83 yrs old. No history of blood pressure except a little high sometimes for the last couple of years She has to go for a cataract operation soon and her blood pressure has suddenly shot up But it was fluctuating. Doctor adviced Stamlo 5 twice daily until the operation. But should we give her this medicine even if the pressure goes back to near normal? Her pulse is around 90.
[|AI|]  Hi !  Thank you for posting your question here. I would say that when the blood pressure it's more than 140:90 , should consider high blood pressure and need to take care especially after having it for a long time, cause will affect the heart and blood vessels. Stamlo (amlodipine) is a good Chat Doctor. The thing is that amlodipine can cause low blood pressure and fast heart data (tachycardia more than 100 heart beat / minute ). So measure your grandmother blood pressure, heart beat every day, also if she has swollen legs. If she has call the doctor he will low the dosage to 5 mg once a day, or change the medication according to the side effect.Also, should check the cholesterol level, heart and kidney condition. Wish these help. If you have any other questions please feel free to ask me
