i am in us for a short stay. I take telsartan 80mg twice a day for hypertension and i am 55 years old.By mistake i misplaced my medicines and in short of this tablet for a week before i go to india. kindly suggest me some equivalent one available in us or shall i reduce the dosage to cover up one week. ## The active ingredient is Telmisartan and it is available here, but requires a doctor's prescription. But what you'd want to look for is a medication that contains this same active ingredient. And no, it is not safe to miss tablets or reduce your dosage on your own, because it may cause dangerous rebound effects, which could result in severely elevated blood pressure or heart rate. Have you tried consulting a doctor here in the U.S.?...

For how long can I continue taking the following blood pressure medications? (1) Telsartan 80AM (2) NitrilixSR. I've been taking them for over 3 yrs. Can I continue? ## You should take them as long as your doctor instructs you to do so. The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, and hypotension. I have been taking similar medications for almost 7 years, now, without a problem. It is actually far more dangerous to let your blood pressure get out of control, since that could cause fatal health problems, than it is to take the medication. Is there anything else I can help with?...
