@sueinmn I'm the complete opposite. I'm on Metoporol 25mg and Elquius 5mg morning and night. I too am asthmatic. They were worried it would aggravate my asthma but I also have AF and it was controlling my heartbeat really well and didn't affect my asthma. Yay. I have been on BP meds from the age of 29 I've just reached the age of 73. Caduet 10mg BP 10mg cholesterol. Recently my BP had been hard to control and my kidney levels were dropping so I'm seeing a kidney specialist. He's put me on APO - Irbesartan 150mg morning and night to get it down but hasn't worked so I have another tablet Moxonidine 30mg once per day. It concerns me being on so many BP meds so I'm seeing my GP next Tuesday to get this BP sorted. I also have Atrial Fibrilation diagnosed this time 2024 so I have had a pacemaker installed. We have a history of heart in our family dads side. I really do not like this getting older. Lol

@ann3838 I got my best advice on BP meds from a Clinical Phramacist who reviewed all of my meds, then communicated with my cardiologist to get it all sorted out.
If you are on Medicare and more than 5 prescriptions, you can request a medication review once a year. Try to get it from someone connected to your doctors, not an insurance company.
