I went through your details. You have not mentioned your age. Blood pressure treatment is essential to safeguard your kidneys, eyes, heart and for many other organs and for general health. Your doctor prescribed you medicine because he felt you need it. You should visit your doctor again. Let him check your blood pressure and then if he feels so, you can stop the medicine. Please do not take self decisions. Take care.
