Suggest Treatment Forsudden Onset Of Hot Flashes

walked into store and suddenly became hot and sweating. Took BP in store pharmacy it was 188/110 took again about 10 min or so and it dropped to145/80. I am on Lisinopril 5mg but just increased to 10mg on 10/18/16 for HBP. Should I start keeping baby aspirin in my purse? Also taking Metoprolol 100mg for tackycardia. Thank you

Hello,

You require continuous monitoring of your blood pressure for a weeks time period and the dose adjustment if needed. Aspirin can be kept for emergency purposes if chest pain occurs.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
