Hi,

It is not necessary to take 3 hypertension medicines. You can take a combined drug if you have high blood pressure, and along with that you can take Metformin 500 mg. There will be no issues.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Javeriya, General & Family Physician
