Do I really need all those medicines ?

I am 42 year old male and having Hypertension since the age of 32. I have tried several Beta Blockers & ACE Inhibitors in the past 10 years. I used to change the medication every 2~3 years when they were found ineffective.

Following is a list of medicines I have consumed in the order :
Atenolol, Lisinopril, Enalapril & Bisoprolol.

Recently when my BP was at a rate of 170/110, my doctor prescribed following medicines : Metpure XL 25 (Metoprolol 25Mg) & Arbitel-H (Telmisartan 40Mg).

Now the BP at a controlled level.

As I can understand it, first one is a Beta Blocker & other is an ACE-Inhibitor .

But, after starting these medicines , I  feel very weak & exhausted . Though I have been taking different medicines in the past, I never felt so lethargic. I can't run a 100 Mtrs or climb a hill. Could it be  the side-effect of the medicines or am I taking an over-dose ?

If I'm reading this correctly, you just started the medications recently. Often it takes 3-4 weeks for your body to adjust to the new meds. And in some cases, people on beta blockers continue to feel some lingering fatigue months later. Just give it a chance, see how you feel in a month or two. I hope it gets better since high BP is so dangerous.
