Nifedipine FAQ

Physicians, kindly answer my inquiry.?

First question: Am I going to give a calcium channel blocker (Nifedipine) to my aunt whose BP is 170/90? She doesn't know her usual BP. I got her BP for three times, and it's still 170/90. She is not taking any maintenance medications for her chronic hypertension. She usually eats garlic and usually excuses herself for not taking maintenance medication for hypertension. She always claim that she is healthy even though it is very obvious that it is not. She has many varicose veins. Btw, She has type 2 diabetes mellitus. She is now 65 years old. Second question: My sister (16y/o) suffered from a severe abdominal pain a while ago. PR:89 bpm, RR: 18 cpm, BP: 90/60. Her pain scale ranges from 6-10. She applied liniment to somehow relieve the pain on her abdomen. Afterwards, she took Buscopan (Hyoscine Butylbromide). Is it right to self-medicate herself? Thank you so much!

i also take hydroclorothoraziad and nifedipine too.
