Hello,

Concor is not a very potent bp lowering drug and not a first choice now a days. You request you doctor to change it to tab Telmisartan or Amlodipine. Have a healthy lifestyle like avoid fatty, oily and high calorie diet. Have low salt diet and monitor blood pressure regularly thrice a day for one week then once or twice a week. Regular exercises like brisk walking, jogging according your capacity at least 30 min a day and 5 days a week. Lots of green leafy vegetables, fruits, fish once or twice a week, and avoid meat. Avoid smoking and alcohol if any. There shouldn't abdominal fat deposition or obesity. Get your lipid profile and sugars tested once.

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