These xray changes are due to hypertension as long standing hypertension causes hypertrophy of cardiac muscles known as cardiomyopathy which on xray shows cardiomegaly and prominent bronchovascular markings so no need to take any other medication but you get your electrocardiogram and 2d echo done for your cardiac assesment.
