Hello
Your mother may need proper anti-hypertensives after clinical evaluation.
She may need to switch to other anti-hypertensive medicines.
She may need routine hemogram,random blood sugar,liver and renal function test,urine RE/ME,ECG in all leads and chest X-ray (PA view).
She should avoid excess salt and avoid junk food.
I advise to take lot of fibers in diet.
She may need regular monitoring of blood pressure.
Get well soon.
Take Care
