Hi,

You need tab. telmisartan for blood pressure control. Keep your blood sugar level under control by drugs.

For prevention, restrict alcohol, fatty foods and salty foods. Avoid smoking.

Go for a regular walk at a moderate pace for at least 30 minutes daily.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Varinder Joshi,
