Abstract
Recently, increase or decrease in blood pressure level is one of the main problems for human all over the world which causes heart attack, Brain stroke, and many other diseases. There are many reasons for blood pressure and is increasing day-by-day and controlling blood pressure is one of the difficult tasks for every patient. For that patients take different kinds of medicines according to doctors suggestion. But, effects of these medicines gradually decrease at the time passes by. In this work we propose a treatment named as MusMed which is the combination of music therapy and medicine which helps to control blood pressure of human body. We used Indian classical raga by instrumental guitar as a music therapy and olmesartan molecule as a medicine. The results indicate that the combination of music therapy and medicine works well as compared to only medicine. Our results are validated through mercury sphygmomanometer.
