Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
Continue the present medicine / The diastolic pressure can be brought still lower - you can increase the dose of Tazloc to 40 mg (you are now taking minimal dose only) or add another drug like amlodipine..
Rozart is for cholesterol and is good to continue...
No smoking / regular exercise / diet with less salt and fat
Regular follow up..
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck

Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
After going through your history ,you have Hypertension for last 10 years also as you are taking Rozat may be for Cholesterol issues.
Your dose of Antihypertensive that is Telmisartan may be titrated up to get good control of blood pressure ideally should be 13/80 mm of Hg.
Please do not change your medication or dose by yourself, you must visit
a good Physician and adjustment in the prescription can be made.
Please consume less salt it should be
If there is smoking or alcohol use is there then please stop both.
Please keep track of your blood pressure and your Lipid profile get them checked regularly.
Please take Care
Good Luck.
