[QUOTE="timewerx, post: 77520071, member: 314730"] My mom's doctor did told us to get her off the medication if her BP goes under 130/80. :oldthumbsup: And only resume if her BP goes above that. She told us it's safe to do that. I check her BP twice a day It also depends on the meds you're talking. "Carvedilol" or "Carvid" for example is potentially dangerous to stop medication abruptly. Getting off Carvid requires progressively tapering medication for several days or even more. Her doctor actually forgot to tell us about tapering Carvid when getting off although it was initially part of her meds. So it's very important to do some research on the meds you're using. Don't assume doctors are telling everything or incapable of making mistakes. They're still human prone to mistakes after all. Fortunately, her doctor got her off Carvid permanently. She's taking another BP med that is much safer but now, she's off it too as per doctor instruction if her BP goes under 130/80. [/QUOTE]
