Default Re: Changing meds---equivalences.

After initial diagnosis following a prolonged nosebleed and three nights in hospital was started on 75mg irbesartan, raised to 150mg, then 300, then hydrochlorthiazide added, plus (at the time atenolo) and indapamide.

I have tried to get reasessment and perhaps changed to a calcium antagonist but Drs won't change while BP controlled.

If irbesartan much more expensive then that could be a reason for change.
