[|Human|] 26y/o male, recently had an episode of high blood pressure (180/110). Doctor prescribed me  Lotrel (5/20mg) BP came down to ~120/90. Stopped taking Lotrel after first day, BP shot up to 170/122, went to emergency. Saw my doctor yesterday, checked blood and urine work (all clean), did EKG and said I have a fast heart rate (~90-95bpm) and hypertension. Prescribed me Coreg CR 80mg.Is the Coreg CR necessary? Im afraid that such a high dose would drop my heart rate down too low.thank you.
[|AI|]  Core CR (carvedilol) was prescribed at 80 mg because of your high blood pressure on presentation in emergency. Stopping of the earlier medication lot rel(amlodipine+benazepril) abruptly has resulted in such a high blood pressure. Never stop hypertensive medications abruptly. It can shoot up the blood pressure and cause dangerous consequences. Now you have concern regarding high dose, you need to take these two points in consideration while thinking of 80 mg as a high dose -Lot rel that was used for control earlier is a fixed dose combination of two Chat Doctor.
