Blood Pressure Medicine

Proverbs 4:20-22 God’s Word is my medicine.


Another day on medication. My mother takes Lopressor twice a day for her blood pressure. The generic name is Metoprolol. She has been on this for years. She takes 50-mg. twice a day with food. This medication should not be abruptly stopped always follow your doctors instructions. You may also find that additional blood pressure medications are needed such as a diuretic. With a diuretic it is important to eat bananas and tomatoes as it replaces potassium that this medication could deplete.

God’s Word is still your best medication.

Later,

Rebecca
