Hi S M Bothrs
Your BP seems to be on the higher side which could put additional strain on your heart. The drugs prescribed are rational and there is reduced incidence of strokes and cardiac arrest with these drugs. Its highly recommended that you continue them.Hope that answers your query
Take care
