Telmisartan 40 Mg And Stamlobeta 50 Mg

Updated

I have been taking Stamlobeta for the past 8 years and my blood pressure is quite under control. However, I was diagnosed with diabetes in 2010 and am currently taking Glycomet 250mg. As my fasting blood sugar levels are consistently above normal, my doctor recently advised me to stop taking Stamlobeta and start Telmisartan, 40mg a day. My question is; can I immediately stop Stamlobeta as my doctor suggested and take Telmisartan? Or alternatively, do I need to gradually reduce the dose of Stamlobeta over a two-week period before stopping it completely? If I need to taper off Stamlobeta, is it then safe to take half a tablet of Telmisartan, that is 20mg, along with 25mg of Stamlobeta? Please enlighten me on this subject.
