Detailed Answer:
Hello Sir
After going through the details provided by you I can understand your concern about your health and I would like to tell you that if all your tests are coming normal, then it suggests the medicines are working well for you.
It’s not advisable to change or stop the meds if you don’t have any issues and the reports are normal.
But keep monitoring your blood pressure and sugars at regular intervals and health checkup yearly.
Kind Regards
