Hello lybrate-user. Your physician has done correct. Your need of antihypertensive might have lowered or sometimes some people start getting hypotension mostly postural, that means bp falls on standing, walking, or while urinating. So you can have sudden giddiness at that time and you can fall. Postural hypotension is one of the commonest cause of elderly fractures. So to avoid that he has rightly decided to take out your ch component. I hope you understood.

Yes, eritel ch has a compound which has a diuretic action, that makes you urinate more. And now since your BP is low, you can switch to just Eritel as this does not have the diuretic action, hence your BP may revert back to normal. Also make sure you have adequate intake of water also. If you found my answer helpful, please leave a like/ thanks. Thank you.
