Answer :

Dear Ritika,

Yes, we have checked the message you left before. Your blood pressure 150/90 is a little bit high. We believe it is related to the over dosage of eltroxin 137mg you take.

We don't suggest use another medicine (amlopren) to blood pressure problem. The reason is this blood pressure may caused by eltroxine.

Our suggestion is that you need to know the root of the problem. It is your thyroid hormone. You get hypothyroidism and take eltroxin as thyroid hormone replacement. However, such hormone replacement can't perfect match with your body. So even you take 137mg of eltroxine still can't solve your problem. It cause you have temporarily high blood pressure too.

We suggest you to take TT. TT can help your thyroid gland to work in more efficient way. Such thyroid hormone is best hormone for your body. You will feel much comfortable and more energy. Also, you have chance to lower down the dosage of eltroxine. You need not another medicine to solve your blood pressure problem if you take TT. Thank you!
