with telsar beta your blood pressure is under control, that is really good. hypertension can be controlled with medicine along with life style changes. medicine will be life long, dose may get reduced. you need to check for renal function with electrolyte every 6 months, to keep a watch on sodium and potassium levels. any imbalance in their levels can cause problem. so continue the medicine.
