Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You should try Telmisartan. There is no definitive evidence of cancer with this. However, if you are not comfortable then you may started your on beta blockers like Metoprolol Xr. Also, have low salt diet and regular exercises.
Hope this helps you and get back if you have any doubts.
