What Is The Treatment For High Blood Pressure?
I am a 46 years old male and my current BP levels are 150/110 despite being on CILACAR 5mg tab twice a day for last one month. I dont feel any effect of this high BP and even my BP reading in 2007/ 08 onwards showed 130/95. I am a healthy guy and non - smoke/non alcoholic and vegetarion. I do exercise for about 30 mins a day, play badminton twice a week over week ends. I dont feel any effect of this high BP in my body and latest medication of CILACar not helping to bring down to acceptable levels. Is it safe for me to consider my body has adjusted for the high BP level or suggest alternate medicine? Thanks in advance

Hi welcome to HCM.
High blood pressure should always be treated especially if it is persistent.Record your blood pressure in standard 3 positions and have baseline EKG and screening 2 dimensional echo.Drug treatment with ace inhibitors and beta blockers will provide excellent reduction of your blood pressure.Maintain your BP below 130/80 mm oh Hg.Regular excercise will also lower Blood pressure.Consult your doctor for further queries.
