Hi i read your query very carefully.
Before running to conclusion i would like to suggest to run cardiac, renal and hormonal complete check up in order to rule out secondary hypertension which is resistant to standard treatment.
Please bare in mind that the number of pills isn't relevant in the treatment of hypertension. The goal is to reach the target BP
Hope this will be of help!
