How Can High Blood Pressure Be Better Controlled?

I have low testosterone and high blood pressure. I take androgel for the low testosterone. and take lisinopril for the high blood pressure. The lisinopril is the 3rd type of blood pressure meds. And have changed my diet to try to help with my blood pressure. My blood pressure has stayed the same. What can I do to lower my blood pressure. The androgel seems like it is working with my energry levels. but I cann't get a erection without taking cailis. Is this common?

if it's controlled on lisinopril then it should be continued, if not either dose should be increased or other medicine like Amlodipine should be added.
You just maintain the record of blood pressure and show it your physician. Blood pressure control can be achieved very easily and has got lot of medicine to treat it, not to worry about it.
Also simultaneously continue low salt diet, avoid smoking or alcohol if any, regular exercises will help.
