My bp is 140-100. Doctor suggested me Olmesar 40. But I have taken other medicine ATICEL 50. Can I take this? And should I take this life time? Or I can stop whenever I feel ok?

Check your bp again if it is normal slowly stop that medicine .Because if you take this for longer time ,then you get this habit of taking medicine and this treatment last for life time which is very harmful.

Aticel is different BP medicine, mild, and suitable for young people under age 50. In your case it may be sufficient. Reduce to half later. You can stop also, but continue to monitor BP once every two months on fixed date after resting for ten minutes. Restart medicine if constantly above 145.
