diuretic is the drug for hypertension control. But if your heart rate remains on the higher side, you need to add on with Beta blockers too, but before that just check your pulse at various time in day. if persistent high, consult the physician for further management of rate and BP both. sometimes volume loss due to diuretics can lead to tachycardia, so better consult doctor.
