Your blood pressure values are a little high, and before starting medication, some lifestyle modifications should be tried first.
In this regard, I would recommend reducing maximally salt and caffeine intake in your diet and performing a lot of physical activity (aerobics, Yoga, recreational sports, etcetera).
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Ilir Sharka
