Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. There is no need of such rapid control of BP unless one has heart failure or brain hemorrhage. Along with low salt diet and regular exercises, there are very good medicine available like telmisartan or amlodipine which will control BP very effectively.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
