Hi..
welcome to HCM
the medication what your doctor has prescribed is for fever and cold. No such medication increases blood pressure. Sir you have not mentioned your blood pressure at first visit. Increased blood pressure in 2-3 visit is considered as hypertension. I think your doctor has checked blood pressure even in first consultation. Definitely your blood pressure is high at second visit. Hypertension can affect any age.
Thank you
