Met Xl 50 Used For

I started using MET XL 50 MG AFTER ANGIOPLASTY AT 8 AM IN THE MORNING. IN THE BEGINGING ONE MONTH MY BP USED TO BE 110/70. THE MEDICINE WAS USED ALONG WITH CLOPITAB, NITRACT AND ECHOSPRIN. RECENTLY I OBSERVED MY BP TO BE GOING UP IN SPITE OF THE USAGE OF THE DRUG AND IT GOES TO 95/155 BY EVENING 6 PM EVEN THOUGH I AM STILL TAKING THE DRUG IN THE MORNING. THE DCOTOR ASKED ME TO REPEAT THE DOSAGE IN THE EVENING ALOS. AFTER TAKING THE EVENING DOSAGE BY 10 PM THE BP COMES BACK TO 120/78. HEART RATE IS SAME THROUGHOUT THE DAY BETWEEN 58 TO 70. DOES MET XL AFTER USAGE FOR SOME TIME LOOSE ITS EFFICIENCY? WHY AFTER ONE MONTH THE BP WENT UP? CAN YOU PLEASE EXPLAIN OR SHALL I STOP THIS DRUG AND TAKE ANY ALTERNATIVE?

According to NIH reports, it is normal for your blood pressure levels to vary throughout the day, and can depend on when you've eaten, what you've eaten, your activity levels and various other factors.

How many times a day are you checking it? Why are you checking it in the evening?

You should take it as directed by your doctor.
