What Is The Treatment For High Blood Pressure?
Hi, I am on Olmatec and Atenalol and have been for some years for high blood pressure problems. I had it checked a few weeks ago with my doctor and he was concerned it was 167/83 however I had missed a few days medication. I checked it today and it is 134/76 is this okay considering I am on medication still? thanks for your help.

Hi There
I understand your concern for your health and I would like to suggest that your Blood pressure is well under control (134/76) with these two medicines. So it's advisable that you should continue with them and don't skip them in between as it can cause an increase in your BP.
Rest general precautions you should take like avoiding high dietary salt, avoid smoking and excessive coffee intake.
I wish you good health
